Pyrite Crystal | Mined Drilled Core Sample | 78 Grams | Farnham, Québec, Canada | SO24

This is a fantastic crystallized pyrite core sample.   The specimen is rounded with brassy pyrite crystals.  A pyrite mine core sample is a cylindrical piece of rock, often several inches in diameter, extracted from the earth by a drilling rig to explore for pyrite deposits. These samples are used to physically examine the rock's geology, identify different mineral types like pyrite, and measure their abundance and distribution. Core samples are critical for determining the economic viability of a mine and are analyzed using methods such as visual inspection, microscopic examination, and chemical techniques.

This top specimen is in perfect condition. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.
