This large piece of iron pyrite, also known as fool's gold, was formed deep within the limestone located beneath Austin, TX. This nodule was coated with the white limestone when found, however the weight of the stone left me with little doubt that something else was contained inside the rock.
All of the limestone has been removed, revealing an absolutely brilliant specimen. The surface is covered with sparkling gold crystals that are intermixed with areas that have oxidized to a rich bronze color. The entire stone appears to be covered in glitter and it truly looks better than the listing photos.
The piece measures roughly 1-1/3 X 3 X 2 inches (3 X 8 X 5 cm) and weighs just short of 10 ounces (280 grams).
Shipping to any destination within the United States is included in the listing price.
