I could use some help identifying this little 2 mm crystal from a Kentucky geode. The usual suspects would be pyrite, chalcopyrite, marcasite, or hematite, but the platy hexagonal shape has me scratching my head on this one. It appears too brassy to be hematite.  Appreciate any help. Steve |

Looks like you found a piece of mica.

I love the ones that produce these suprise goodies. The geode with the crystal above also had a nice blue barite crystal located in it.
