Cobaltoan Calcite (classic locale)

Item Description

A outstanding and classic, 1.8 cm, beautiful vivid pink cobaltoan calcite scalenohedron dramatically rises up from the minature matrix covered with smaller crystals on this superb specimen from the famous Mashamba West Mine. Cobaltoan calcites from here are considered to be some of the world's finest and this is a most elegant example. This super piece has several fine display views. Valued at $50-700 and well worth it. These came out from the famous finds in the mid-1980s, with none since.
