Item Description
A very nifty and unusual looking combination miniature from the famous mines at Naica and the Miller Calcite Collection # 3582. A weird jackstraw cluster of white, etched, tabluar, calcite rhombs has strange looking, parallel-growth clusters of flattened, tan, calcite rhombs along the edges of the larger crystals. Snugly set in the calcites is a dramatic cluster of sparkly, brassy, pyrrhotite crystals. The 1.5 cm monolith really stands out! Choice and uncommon combination material.
