Item Description
Distinctive cluster of about a half-dozen sharp, gemmy Calcites from the Kalahari manganese fields. The largest of these is about 9 mm, and they fan out beautifully on the limonite matrix. The aesthetics of this thumbnail are very good, not only for the form and luster but also the bright orange fluorescence.
