Item Description

Here we have a showy old-time classic specimen from Santa Eulalia featuring several very sharp, porcelain-like, chalky-white rhombs of Calcite measuring up to 3.3 cm across which are associated with thin colorless blades of Hemimorphite on oxidized matrix. The main Calcite crystal has a beautiful reflective luster on the surface, and it's actually amplified by the fact that the crystal is opaque. A very attractive specimen from one of the most famous specimen producing districts in Mexico.
