Siderite with Quartz and Chalcopyrite (Ref: SV2150TBY)

Le Villaret pit, Susville, Matheysine-Trièves, Grenoble, Isère, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes  France
117mm x 49mm x 48mm
$176 *
Aesthetic specimen formed by sharp lenticular crystals of zoned brown Siderite, randomly arranged on a rock matrix totally carpeted by snow-white Quartz crystals offering a nice contrast of colors. Several brightly colored Chalcopyrite crystals, golden and very shiny, adorn the piece.
The specimen comes from the former collection of Robert-Auguste Touchon and, most surprisingly, was found in the area of some coal mines, west of La Mure, which were closed in 1997.
