Large chunck with dark coppery or black massive Paramelaconite. The specimen comes with one of Paul Moore's label with the specimen number correspnding to the tag (see prov tab). Specimen has been analyzed by XRD as noted on label. Of course this doesn't compare to the excellent find by Shawn Carlson in 2003(?) when his group found superb crystals in the old workings.
