Cubic Pyrite in slate 4kg- St Créac (France)
PUMI1569
Lourdes is the most famous place of pilgrimage for Catholics in France, especially because of the miracles that took place in this city. But there is also a slate mine in this city, because the traditional roofs of the mountain regions are covered with cut slates. And even if it’s not really a miracle, it happens from time to time that cubes of pyrite have grown in the middle of this slate. Pyrite: a golden natural stone. But if it is not gold, it is a metal that is even more noticeable when it sprinkles the matt surface of the slate with its golden cubes.
