Galena and Quartz Crystals

This specimen is from Colorado. Galena is a natural lead sulphide, the most important form of lead ore. Crystals are generally cubic as seen here, or octahedral. Quartz is the second most abundant mineral in the Earth's crust, often forming spike-like trigonal crystals as above. From my personal collection.

EOS 6D, EF 50 mm ƒ/1.4, ES 71II: 2.5 sec, ƒ/22, ISO 100, six 20w Xenon bulbs (check out the shadows!), tripod.
