Several large and fairly rare Pyritohedral Limonite pseudomorphs after pyrite, a form well noted for this particular locality, and a highly prized find over the more commonly occuring cubic variety. Specimens from the Fruitville Pike Limonite Locality, just North of Lancaster, Lancaster Co., Pennsylvania (Dana locality). Acquired from the Jay Lininger collection. Central specimen size: 3.2 x 3.5cm. From the PA Annex of my personal collection, acquired in 2005.
