Iron Pyrites striations

18 Dec 2009 142
These are two small cubes of Iron Pyrites, part of a larger specimen. The sides of some of the cubes are striated, which is kind of neat. Not sure what causes the surface to be grooved - did a very rapid search yesterday, but the one and only site I glanced at was so way above my head, I left it.
