Item Description

A really cute and aesthetic calcite specimen from Mina Ojuela and the Dick Heck Collection. A striking wreath of glassy, sharp, calcite rhombs encircles a knob of starkly contrasting, lustrous, rust-red, goethite botryoids. All of the rhombs are doubly terminated, one is twinned and several others are interpenetrating twins. Complete all-around and pristine. This is a superb MIna Ojuela calcite. Ex Dick Heck Collection and valued at $400. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!
