ICN10 Sphalerite
Huanggang Mine, Hexigten Banner (Keshiketeng Co.), Ulanhad League (Chifeng Prefecture), Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China
8.6x 4.1x 3.0 cm
$950

A specimen of the much sought after yellow sphalerite, feauturing a sizable crystal on matrix.   These remain among the most sought after items from the mine, and are among the most scarce-- I saw fewer than 4 in Tucson, and the prices ranged from $2,000 to $6,000 and none were 2 to 6 times better than this one.... 

 The surfaces are slightly etched, so the color is a bit lighter, though the piece s damage free. The appearance in the pictures is under normal lighting, the color is better in a case setting.
