A shiny black chunk of pyramidal magnetite with glittering red crystals of chondrodite on top. It was found in the Tilly Foster Iron Mine in New York. Since it measures only 2.8 x 2.6 x 2.1 cm, if you’re on a desktop or tablet, you’re viewing it larger than actual size.
Fantastic! I used to have something like that when I was a kid. My father is a geologist.
