Numerous intergrown pyrite crystals are distributed across the white calcite formation, creating rich contrast between reflective brass-gold metal and pale crystalline matrix.\u003cbr\u003eThe primary display face contains several concentrated pyrite groups, accompanied by smaller isolated crystals scattered throughout the calcite. Their surfaces shift between bright gold, warm bronze, gunmetal, and nearly black reflections depending on the lighting angle. Fine colorless-to-white calcite crystals fill the spaces between these metallic formations, producing a densely textured, sparkling surface.\u003cbr\u003eUnder ordinary lighting, the calcite appears ivory white to softly translucent. When exposed to a 365 nm long-wave ultraviolet lamp, much of the calcite transforms into a strong icy blue-to-cyan glow. The nonfluorescent pyrite remains comparatively dark, creating a dramatic pattern of metallic islands against the illuminated calcite. Fluorescence intensity and apparent color may vary with lamp strength, ambient darkness, camera settings, and viewing conditions.\u003cbr\u003eMounted upright on a fitted black display base, this compact specimen offers attractive coverage and display interest from multiple angles.\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 0.47 lbs, approximately 213 grams\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: Approximately 3 × 2 × 3.5 inches\u003cbr\u003eLocality: Huanzalá Mine, Peru\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Natural specimen with inherent contacts, incomplete crystals, inclusions, fractures, surface deposits, and edge irregularities.
