Navajún Pyrite on Matrix: A Collector's Masterpiece

This exceptional specimen from the world-renowned pyrite deposits near Navajún, La Rioja, Spain, features a perfectly formed, lustrous pyrite cube measuring 20mm x 22mm x 20mm. It is beautifully embedded within its natural matrix, creating a striking display. The overall specimen measures 56mm x 38mm x 46mm and weighs 111 grams.
The pyrite crystals from Navajún are celebrated globally for their unparalleled cubic habit and sharp, brilliant faces. These remarkable formations are a testament to the unique geological conditions of the region. The pyrite crystallizes within a marl-limestone sequence dating back to the Lower Cretaceous period.
