Sweetwater Galena on Matrix // 10 Lb.

This huge metallic galena cube from the Sweetwater mine, Viburnum Trend, Reynolds County, Missouri, measures 3-1/4" x 3" x 2-3/4" and gleams in bright juxtaposition against its host rock. Galena is the primary ore of lead and this location is famed as a source for prime specimens of the lead sulfide mineral with large, well-formed crystals like this sizable single cube - often with exceptional luster as well. This is an impressive and highly collectible large cabinet-sized piece.
