Item Description

Here we have a classic piece of these attractive and eye-catching specimens from Fort Drum, Florida which formed when gemmy Calcite crystals grew in the natural opening of a fossil clamshell. The end result is a beautiful group of golden scalenohedral Calcites measuring up to 1.0 cm that are nearly WATER CLEAR in areas, creating both a mineral specimen and a fossil together in the same piece. Not many fine crystallized specimens come from Florida, and these are certainly distinctive and fun for collectors.
