DESCRIPTION
A superb floater mineral specimen, featuring glossy black Sphalerite accented with snow‑white druzy Quartz tufts, scattered Galena, Pyrite, and Chalcopyrite crystals throughout. The entire piece sits on a mixed Galena and Chalcopyrite matrix, with no point of attachment — a true floater, fully crystallised on all sides.
The contrast between the dark Sphalerite and the bright Quartz creates exceptional visual impact, while the metallic sulphides add sparkle and colour variation. Under light, the specimen displays intricate crystal morphology and phenomenal lustre, making it a standout display piece for collectors of Bulgarian minerals.
