Details

Schalenblende Small Slabs - One Side Polished


These unusual specimens hail from Poland. They are a combination of galena (the silvery metallic part), sphalerite (the

brown bands), and wurzite (the tan/vanilla color) which fluoresces orange under ultraviolet light. Some also contain a little

pyrite. They occur in masses with concentric layers of the three or sometimes four minerals. Schalenblende is the German

name which has carried over directly into English, although they are also called "brunckite" in Australia. Although mined in

Europe, this stone is less well known in the USA and correspondingly more rare. 

All pieces are face-polished, and most have a flat saw-cut on the backside, while some have the irregular end-cuts on the

backside. All make nice specimens, especially at the price! 

 

Size: All are close to the same size, at 1.00 to 2.00 inches. About 1/4 to 1/2" thick.

Unit for sale: 1 piece

Mined in Pomorzany, Poland.
