DYSCRASITE
Specimen dys-2


$ 95.00
Dims:0.5x0.4x0.2" (1.3x1.0x0.5 cm)
Wt: 0.3oz. (9g)w/box
Pibram, Czech Republic
This specimen consists of several prismatic crystals of dyscrasite on a black matrix of what I believe to be silver sulfides. The largest dyscrasite crystal measures 0.3" (0.8cm) in length. The end of the specimen reveals a dyscrasite crystal wrapped in concentric layers of the black matrix material. This may indicate that the black material might be an alteration product of the dyscrasite. All of the dyscrasite crystals show varying degrees of damage; there are no termination faces present. This specimen is affixed to a small plastic box for protection.

This small thumbnail piece consists of a small, arborescent Dyscrasite formation. Though the formation appears to be broken and incomplete upon first glance, one can see actual termainations on all of the edgeward surfaces. Though somewhat warped, its orthorhombic form is reasonably good, and it shows a somewhat tarnished silvery color and a slightly dull metallic luster. There is no host rock present, and the piece is affixed inside a plastic thumbnail box with hot glue.
