I thought I had sold my last rare Birds Eye Sphalerite.However, I just came across this HUGE MUSEUM QUALITY piece.
Very hard to come by!
I can assure you, you will probably NEVER see another piece of this size and quality again!
NOTE:
Please forgive my incomplete lighting of the rock.
My UV setup is in disarray due to hurricane damage repairs, and I am forced to show this beauty using only longwave UV flashlights and a hand-held shortwave UV light.
They do not give the entire rock justice!
My advice is to look at the lit area in photo #2 and imagine that across the entire rock face.
The color represented in the first UV photo is accurate, while the following photos are overexposed and appear whiter than the actual color is.
My apologies.
All UV photos except #4 and 5 are in LONGWAVE UV.
The shortwave photos (#4 and #5) are accurate and show uncommon red, blue, and green minerals.
I do not know what those minerals are.
This rock weighs FIVE Pounds 9.5 ounces (2.54 Kg), and measures approximately 5.00 inches x 4.75 inch x 4.50 inch (12.5 cm x 11.9 cm x 11.2 cm).
This comes from Balmat, NY.
With golden flakes of Pyrite, it sparkles in the sun!
Typical Blacklight UV lights and weaker longwave lamps will NOT display any color.
Also, the intensity of the color will vary depending on the strength and type lamp you have.
I have set the shipping as First-Class Mail.
If you plan on bidding on MORE than one rock, let me know BEFORE you pay your invoice, so I may combine shipping to save you money.
This is to your bidding advantage, as I can often fit 5 or even 6 rocks in one box.
If you are the successful bidder,
please leave positive feedback

It is much appreciated.
If you have any questions, please ask.
