An aggregate of orange-cream coloured lenticular Siderite crystals forms the host for well-formed golden metallic Chalcopyrite crystals. Several Chalcopyrite crystals are completely sheared away, with just the flat metallic base remaining but those that remain display excellent sharp glossy faces. Being from the famous Neudorf area in the Harz Mountains, Saxony-Anhalt, Germany makes this a really collectible piece.
