Sphalerite from Driscoll Mine, USA

Sphalerite from Driscoll Mine, Battle Mountain Mining District, Lander County, Nevada, USA

Small specimen of Sphalerite from Driscoll Mine, Nevada, USA.

Small gemmy brown-red crystals visible under magnification.

Unfortunately, this piece was formerly glue mounted, and I haven't tried to remove the glue - it comes mounted with mineral putty in a plastic display box with our label and a former owners label. Unless unmounted, you can't see the glue.
