Pyrite is not the most common mineral in the Panasqueira mines, but from time to time curious samples like this one have been found, formed by a group of very lustrous pineapple-shaped crystals with a cavity that shows a crystal of cubic morphology, also of Pyrite, adorning the entire specimen, which comes from the former collection of Francisco Fernández Ortega. A floater.

Floater specimen formed of very shiny skeletal Pyrite crystals that partially cover a group of characteristic yellow Fluorite crystals from the Mina Moscona, as you can see on the back of the piece.
