Huge Oval Shape Pyrite Marcasite On Limonite Matrix From Pakistan

About the Item

Specimen Type Pyrite crystals on Limonite Weight 2558 grams Dimensions H: 20 x W: 15 x D: 4.5 cm Origin Hazara Division, KPK Province, Pakistan Treatment None The Pyrite Marcasite on Limonite matrix from Pakistan is an extraordinary mineral specimen characterized by its unique crystallographic features and striking visual appeal. Pyrite, known for its metallic luster and pale brass-yellow hue, often crystallizes in cubic or octahedral forms. In contrast, Marcasite, which shares the same chemical composition as Pyrite (FeS₂) but differs in crystal structure, typically forms orthorhombic crystals that exhibit a radiating, fibrous, or tabular habit. When these two minerals coexist on a Limonite matrix, they create a fascinating interplay of textures and forms. The Limonite, an amorphous iron oxide, provides a rich, earthy backdrop with its ochre to brown colors, enhancing the brilliance of the metallic crystals. This particular specimen from Pakistan showcases the natural artistry of mineral formation, where the sharp, geometric shapes of Pyrite and the intricate, needle-like structures of Marcasite contrast beautifully against the rough, porous surface of the Limonite.
