Item Description

Classic balls of lustrous, translucent, calcite rhombs aesthetically envelope the sulfide matrix on this sculptural, very nearly pristine, 360-degree specimen from the Herja Mine of Romania. The grayish tint is probably due to minute amounts of included boulangerite. Excellent and unusually shaped material from the Herb Obodda dealer stock.
