With my luck, I'll probably wind up discovering the world's largest lump of pyrite
Paco, it wouldn't be a complete bust. True, the lump wouldn't bring a large sum as is expected with the pearl. But museums and collectors would want it. Pyrite is also used in jewelry. And you'd be famous as the guy who found the largest lump of pyrite. You'd be the toast of mineral circles.
