A lump of stressed galena from the Minnie Moore.
Cut & polished Pb ore showing a brecciated structure with metallic gray galena clasts surrounded by dark grayish-black veins (probable tetrahedrite). Although a small mine, the Minnie Moore was a relatively prolific Pb ore producer with some notable Ag also.
