Calcite (fluorescent!) w/ Ilvaite & Quartz (Wolfe Coll.)

Item Description

A super nifty and highly unusual calcite combination from Dal'negorsk. Two, amazing, water-clear, gem, complex calcite rhombs are aesthetically set atop the glassy translucent calcite rhombs. Fabulous black spots peer out of the gem rhombs, looking like leopard spots, and are, in fact, small ilvaite crystals. The casted back shows the ilvaites embedded in a crust of brown siderite. Topping this striking piece off, tiny, sparkly jewel-like quartz points are preferentially embedded in the etched calcite rhombs. A stunnning and fascinating combination example of the calcite bounty from Dal'negorsk. Neon-orange fluorescence! Choice and rare calcite from the Tom Wolfe Calcite Collection.
