A couple of intergrown Galena crystals make up this piece. One of these crystals is much larger than the others and effectively makes up the entire piece, however. It is in good condition, showing some light damage in one area and has a good pseudohexagonal, tabular form that shows its Spinel-Law twinning. Its gray color and dull metallic luster are standard characteristics. The piece was hot-glued into a plastic specimen box, but came loose (the box is still included).
