Item Description

The Kalahari manganese field has produced outstanding calcite specimens, but fine calcites are RARE from the famous N'Chwaning I Mine. This is a very aesthetic and pristine pair of blocky rhombs. The glassy, translucent crystals have high luster and the mottled/swirled included brown oxides add pizzazz and color contrast to this very cute 360-degree pair.
