Mineralogically a cool specimen. There are plates of Pyrrhotite to 1.7mm like the one at the center. To the left of that crystal are black crystals of Sphalerite to 7mm. To the right is a spray of Quartz. Now those little reticulated crystals are prismatic Arsenopyrite, which are epitaxially oriented. Also in the hood are saddle shaped Siderite crystals and Galena which can be seen on the backside, though are not crystallized but granular.
