A group of several interconnected Sphalerite crystals which, when back lit, can be seen to be semi gemmy with areas of gemmy material big enough to produce small cut stones. The color is a reddish brown but where there are some internalcleaves, a lighter color is present. Some of the surfaces have striations and others are perfectly smooth. The luster is good and is what is often described as being " greasy ". There is some minor attached Amethyst including a few small crystals.

Condition: Good

Flaws: There are some internal cleaves and some minor bruising on some of the edges.
