Zvyagintsevite is an ultra-rare natural alloy of lead and palladium.  This crystal is well defined with a rectangular cubic shape.  An exceptional specimen!  These crystals resemble the isoferro-platinum crystals from the same location, but are much more rare than the already rare isoferro-platinum.   This specimen comes with an analysis of the metals in the specimen.  The zvyagintsevite has a dull grey metallic hue.  

Actual shipping cost will be calculated and added to the invoice.
