Sulfide specimen with 1cm, slightly rounded Galena crystals associated with 1 to 2mm Pyrargyite crystals tucked in the crevices between the Galena crystals. The backside is covered by a thin coating of Pyrargyrite. Several other minerals are associated including Calcite, uartz and Chalcopyrite. There may be Acanthite too, as the original tag indicated. I did not see any.
