A classic Siderite sphere from the Nikolaevskiy Mine in Russia. A floater, spherical in form with smooth rounded surfaces all over and no points of contact. On one side, the larger spherical form morphs into smaller individual spheres and reveals an inner cavity along with brassy Pyrite crystals. White Calcite crystals are attached in areas. Old, undamaged Dalnegorsk specimen.
