Specimens of Pyrite originating from the Chispa Mine in Huanzala, Peru. This Peruvian Pyrite is of a higher grade than our other material, thereby making it more desirable to collectors. These specimens are ideal for displaying pyrite’s signature cubic crystal habit. Iron pyrite is famous for being called “fool’s gold”. This is because its shiny, brassy yellow colour often tricked inexperienced miners into believing they had found a large vein of gold where in reality it was simply pyrite instead. This was most common during the USA gold rush of the 1840’s. Pyrite is a sulphide mineral, which is a group of inorganic compounds consisting of sulphur and at least one more element. Pyrite is an iron disulphide, with a chemical composition of FeS2.
These Peruvian pyrite specimens are an ideal addition to any collection, as well as being excellent teaching samples too. They are available in a range of sizes and come displayed in a white card tray with an information label.

Specimens of Chrome Diopside that were collected from the Gusdal Olivine Pit, Åheim, Norway. These samples are best described as chrome bearing diopside. Diopside, a vivid green pyroxene mineral, features streaks of grey chromite that creates a stunning mineral sample that would be the perfect addition to any collection. Whilst many samples of chrome diopside tend to be crystalline in nature, our samples are unique as the feature a grainier, more crumbly texture. These specimens are in limited availability, so we recommend you move fast if you wish to add these stunning specimens to your collection.

Massive Biotite Mica specimens, collected from Arendal, Norway. These specimens depict a “massive” crystal structure, as opposed to the more commonly seen sheets. Like all biotite mica, these specimens are dark in colour, exhibiting a dark grey to black hue. Mica is one of the most common mineral groups, with biotite being the most abundant member. Biotite is very common in igneous and metamorphic rocks, with the dark minerals in granites, pegmatites and gneiss often being due in some part to the presence of this black mica. This massive biotite are available in limited supply so we recommend you move fast if you wish to add a piece to your collection. Supplied in a white card tray with information label.
