Several apatite crystals up to 3-4mm are scattered over lustrous well formed tetrahedrite and pyrite, on a matrix of massive pyrite. No damage to the apatite and only minor scuffs to the tetrehedrite and pyrite. Unusual combination and a bright and interesting specimen, hard to photograph and better in person. Self stands and displays well.
