Item Description

Beautiful, intense canary-yellow, gemmy tetragonal Ettringite crystals very richly cover both sides of the very 3-dimensional vuggy matrix of intergrown glassy calcite rhombs on this aesthetic and sculptural miniature combination from the famous N'Chwaning II Mine. The calcite fluoresces pink. See the fine 2017 Mineralogical Record N'Chwaning! article in Vol. 48, No. 1. A showy and excellent miniature combination of the species and noted locale.
