73 Gram. Emerald Crystals Bunch With Pyrite On Matrix Crystals on matrix - Height: 59 mm - Width: 37 mm- 73 g - (1)

Emerald crystals are a variety of the mineral beryl, prized for their rich green color caused by trace amounts of chromium and vanadium. These crystals often form in hexagonal prisms and are valued by collectors for their transparency and vivid hues. In some specimens, emeralds occur alongside pyrite, an iron sulfide mineral known as fool's gold due to its metallic luster and brassy-yellow color. When emerald crystals are found on a matrix that includes pyrite, the combination creates an attractive and contrasting display of green and metallic gold colors, enhancing the specimen's aesthetic and collector appeal. Such mineral clusters exhibit natural crystal formations and give insight into the geological environments where these minerals formed, often within hydrothermal veins or metamorphic rocks.
