Golden Orpiment on Matrix | Specimen 2527D

Orpiment (with natural matrix)

Orpiment is a rare arsenic sulfide mineral (As₂S₃), recognized for its luminous golden-yellow to deep amber tones. It forms in low-temperature hydrothermal environments, often alongside minerals such as realgar, calcite, and quartz. Its soft, foliated structure creates layered, almost petal-like formations, giving each specimen a sculptural, organic feel. Historically prized as a pigment, orpiment remains a sought-after collector mineral for its color and rarity.
