Item Description

Some of the most distinctive mineral specimens out there are the well-known Calcites forming pseudomorphs after Glauberite from Camp Verde. PLEASE NOTE: The color on these specimens is not natural, but rather created by submerging them in a copper-rich solution. For some time, people were led to believe that this was a natural process, but they are treated to create the color. They are still superb pseudomorphs for their amazing sharpness and form.
