A wonderfully well-crystallized, and eye-catching “closed” twin of Ferberite with great form, sharpness and luster is coated by spherical aggregates of pale golden Marcasite and minor grey Arsenopyrite. The piece is virtually undamaged on the display side and when propped up, the piece displays beautifully. Good Bolivian Ferberites are not often found with any associated minerals, especially with any kind of aesthetic appeal like this one. It’s a great full-sized miniature to boot!
