5 mm wide, somewhat nodular aggregate of strashimirite on quartz, showing natural section. It's difficult to establish the precise locality from which the sample comes. The label says "Mala Huta", which could be considered as Slovak name of Kishuta (Northern Hungary), but more probable is just a confusion with famous Novoveska Huta.
