2913 Pyrite, Barite, Fluorite, Nakaye mine (Alamo mine), Derry District, Sierra County, New Mexico, USA

April 18, 2023 Steve New Mexico North and Central Americas United States

Tiny pyrite crystals on the face of a barite crystal, with dark purple fluorite associated. The barite is said to be coloured because of pyrite inclusions, but that even under a microscope, crystals can’t be seen. Except in this case you can see them. Width of view 5.75mm. Stack of 85 images.
