Mineral specimens search results for [ Pyrite ]

Aggregate of cubic Pyrite crystals with echeloned growths and polycrystalline formations on the cube faces. They are very well defined, bright and on a Dolomite matrix and with lenticular Calcite crystals. While well known and relatively common at Trepča, Pyrite is not easily found there as significant collectible samples and less so with such quality as this.

NB96AB5: Pyrite with Calcite

Aggregates of Pyrite crystals mainly consisting of the cube and the pyritohedron, with strongly iridescent surfaces, small Calcite crystals and leafy Muscovite aggregates.

JFD161AO8: Pyrite with Calcite-Dolomite

Unusual. Extra-flat Pyrite crystals growing in what appears to have been a coating of carbonates on the face of a Quartz crystal that at some point had detached, with the crystallization of the carbonates finishing far from where they started forming. As said, unusual.
Minas da Panasqueira, Aldeia de São Francisco de Assis, Covilhã, Castelo Branco, Cova da Beira, Centro Portugal (1990)

NA14AH4: Pyrite with Calcite-Dolomite

Clusters of small Pyrite crystals with complex crystalline forms, with dominant cube faces. They have grown on a botryoidal growth of linear Dolomite crystals that, on the back, have geometric hollows left by an unknown disappeared mineral that had trigonal geometry. Extraordinarily unusual for the locality, currently extinct.
Almaden Mine, Almadén, Comarca Valle de Alcudia, Ciudad Real, Castilla-La Mancha Spain (±1980)

JFD153AO7: Pyrite with Calcite-Dolomite

Panasqueira pyrites are unmistakable. It is curious that such a common mineral can be assigned to one locality in such a recognizable way. Flattened cubes, rich in faces, with Calcite-Dolomite in many cases and that brass-like color, from ancient ore. It is nice what they call the pyrites in Panasqueira when they have this type of tones or they are oxidized: 'ferruginadas'
Minas da Panasqueira, Aldeia de São Francisco de Assis, Covilhã, Castelo Branco, Cova da Beira, Centro Portugal (1989)

Price: [SOLD]

JFD200AP4: Pyrite with Calcite-Dolomite and Quartz

As those familiar with the deposit know, Panasqueira pyrites can be very good. This piece is a good example of this, with the crystal aggregate forming a very aerial pineapple on a Quartz matrix completely covered by small Calcite-Dolomite crystals and with the mold of another Quartz crystal on the back. Everything is quite perfect, without any dings, which is not very common in Panasqueira where, due to the operating conditions, it is very difficult to prevent pieces from being damaged. Luminous and showy, a very good Pyrite.

AF96Y8: Pyrite with Calcite-Dolomite and Quartz

Isolated very bright cubic Pyrite crystals slightly modified by the pyritohedron. They are on a growth of white Calcite-Dolomite crystals partially coating a clear Quartz crystal.

JFD139AO6: Pyrite with Fluorite

Fluorite with two large groups of Pyrite crystals (similar to those of Minas de Villabona) on one side and very bright Pyrite coating the back. The Fluorite is 'Moscona type' and the Pyrite is 'Minas de Villabona type', a curious combination. I bought it from Ramón ‘Chispa’, who was an “institution” from whom one could get good specimens back in the 1990s.

Complete floater crystal of Pyrite with the dominant crystal forms of the positive pyritohedron, identified by the direction of the fine striations on its faces, and truncated by small octahedral faces. The crystal exhibits a deep striation in its lower part left by lamellar crystals of Hematite, some of which are still present on the specimen and comes from the Moutet collection, from Marseille. We will send the buyer, together with the specimen, a label from the prestigious Deyrolle house in Paris where Moutet bought it many years ago.

TFF49AN4: Pyrite with Hematite

Very sharp Pyrite crystal with the dominant crystal forms of the pyritohedron, very lustrous, on a matrix of specular Hematite. This crystal has the crystallographic peculiarity of being a negative pyritohedron, a very rare form that is defined by the direction of the fine striations on the faces, perpendicular to those of the much more common positive pyritohedron.
