Item Description
Surreal, sculptural, multi-hued cobaltoan calcite and aragonite from a New Find at the Wenshan Mine. The dramatically sculptural variable vivid pink cobaltoan calcite formations (cave helectites) are partially overgrown with bubbly botryoidal bone-white aragonite, WHICH IN TURN, have an overgrowth of sparkly, drusy, light pink cobaltoan calcite! An utterly fascinating, super colorful and nearly pristine combination. A contact on the top "stalk" has no damage, per se. Purchased in China, direct from the miners! The vibrant variable pink color saturation and specimen form are remarkable.
