Tabular crystals of Ludlamite shine with a green hue above a multi-textured Pyrite base.  A classic brass-yellow Pyrite with a highly metallic luster can be seen with duller, more adamantine Pyrite covering the half of the specimen containing Ludlamite. Darker in color, this Pyrite has a brown shade and rough texture which contrasts with the glassy luster of the Ludlamite.
