Description: An almost complete cubic crystal of Galena. Exceptional edges. Interesting terminations where the corners are sheared at 45 degrees. The faces show numerous secondary crystallisations giving a ridged and stepped effect. Good metallic luster.

Location: Tri-State, Joplin, Missouri, USA.
