Item Description
Rich straw-yellow, lustrous, translucent calcite rhombs are richly and attractively clustered on the large 3-dimensional plate of frosted off-white quartz points. The striking large rhomb, accented with the rippled top face is 2.8 x 2.5 cm. This is a RARE color and style of calcite from the famous, old Valenciana Mine at famed Guanajuato. Probably old-time combination material, but no proof. See the fine Guanajuato article in the 2016 Mineralogical Record Mexico Special Issue VII, Vol. 47, No. 5. Choice and rare large calcite combination material from the Gary Weaver Collection.
