A group of tetrahedrite crystals on a quartz coated matrix. As is typical with Julcani, this piece has a lot going on-- the tetrahedrite seem to have secondary growths of other sulfide minerals growing on their surfaces, and in cracks. Julcani minerals are often have a very interesting and unusual display of paragenesis... this is no exception. Sawn base.
