-Cut from a single piece of PYRITE from the famous HUANZALA mine in the Peruvian ANDES.
The mineral PYRITE (SCHWEFELKIES) is actually almost impossible to cut due to its high brittleness. Gemstones are usually made from CHALCOPYRITE, which is easier to work with.
PYRITE CRYSTALS with grown end faces can be seen in the cavities of this sphere.
