Calcite (old classic) Mullane Coll.

Item Description

Another older Dennis Mullane Bisbee Collection piece, from Americas greatest mineral locality. This is a well-preserved, arborescent, two-sided cluster of caramel-colored, lustrous calcite crystals, sharp and with fine terminations. Calcites of great variety were saved from the very early days at Bisbee, being recognized for their beauty and variety by the miners, who were allowed to keep them since they had no commercial value. Of course today, Bisbee specimens have a special aura that makes them particularly prized. Classic material from the Southwest Mine.
