Raw Pyrolusite on Matrix, Flat Slab - One of a Kind, 6.8 In #2

Wide and low, this pyrolusite on matrix lies flat and spreads its silver mineral across a broad surface.

That flat profile is the reason to choose it. It can rest on a coffee table, a tray or a low shelf where you look down on it, or lean against a book to show the face. The pyrolusite is embedded in the matrix and has a natural, unpolished finish that shines most in daylight. The silver against darker rock suits modern, neutral rooms. It is also a good teaching piece for showing what an ore mineral looks like in the rock.

About Pyrolusite

Pyrolusite is a black mineral with a metallic luster that leaves a black or bluish black streak and readily soils the fingers. It forms under oxidizing conditions in hydrothermal deposits, often alongside manganite and hematite, and it also forms in bogs.

Stone Meaning: Pyrolusite is traditionally associated with transformation and resolve.
