Spheroidal clusters of black alloclasite on a matrix of crystallized hyaline quartz. The paragenesis is completed by yellow gemmy crystals of twinned cleiophane sphalerite. This specimen was one of the first sphalerites found at the Aït Ahmane mine in August/2015. I obtained it directly from local miners in September/2015.
