With its veined surface, dense inclusions, and bold graphic contrast, this white sphalerite point draws attention like a geological riddle. Rarely seen in such a tall, sculpted form (30 cm tall and over 1.5 kg), this piece is made for collectors who love minerals with character and visual impact.
Sphalerite is a zinc sulfide mineral, typically forming in hydrothermal veins. Its white form is less known than its black or honey-yellow varieties and often includes calcite, creating a stunning network of contrasting veins.
Its name comes from the Greek sphaleros, meaning “deceptive” — as its weight and appearance often misled early miners into confusing it with other ores. This tower looks like it was pulled from a living cavern, caught mid-transformation.
