{"product_id":"pyrargyrite-and-stephanite-with-argentopyrite","title":"PYRARGYRITE and STEPHANITE with ARGENTOPYRITE","description":"This museum grade miniature displays magnificent crystals of Pyrargyrite, a silver-antimony sulphosalt, from the classic and historic mining district around Freiberg in Mittelsachsen, Saxony, Germany.  Pseudo-hexagonal crystals to 1.3 cm high by 1.3 cm wide (between flats) dominate the specimen, with small crystals of lead-grey Stephanite and granular Argentopyrite infilling in between.  The overall appearance of all species is metallic black, however, when held against a strong light source, various edges and areas of the Pyrargyrite transmit its familiar deep translucent claret to cherry red colour.  The Stephanite, another silver-antimony sulphosalt, manifests as heavily striated crystals to a few mm with a dull bronze-gunmetal patina.  A first-class specimen of these rare, typically German sulphosalts, which would elegantly grace any important collection.","brand":"Crystal Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46545188683951,"sku":"CC20503","price":9500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/8516\/2671\/files\/CC20503.png?v=1770377349","url":"https:\/\/crystalclassics.com\/products\/pyrargyrite-and-stephanite-with-argentopyrite","provider":"Crystal Classics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
