Item Description

A fine, cabinet-size Calcite specimen from the well-known mines at Santa Eulalia, Mexico. The super-sharp, lustrous, and gemmy dogtooth Calcite crystals were partially coated with Hematite during growth, creating striking Hematite phantoms. Crystals reach 2.3 cm on this piece. Very nice aesthetics, and bright orange fluorescence, as well.
