Any chance that stuff sticks to your magnet?

Stack of Neodymium magnets didn't even give a slight pull. So no

Hmmm. The structure made me wonder. I can't recall seeing any pyrite with that plumey appearance.
Sorry - if we had any I'd send you a chunk.

toiv0 Billy, maybe this beauty is marcasite plume? I've been looking around and pyrite inclusions don't look like plumes from what I've seen. There can be pyrite and marcasite in the same stone, though.
