Item Description
Rare style cobabtoan calcite from recent finds at the Wenshan Mining District. An exotic multi-hued, pastel-pink, translucent stalactite is dramatically accented with secondary matte lustre black oxides. Complete all-around and pristine. The broken base reveals the multiple tubes where the precipitating fluids flowed. This is an impressive, rare and colorful 360-degree cobaltoan calcite stalactite from this locale. Purchased in China, direct from the miners! The pink color saturation, association and specimen form are remarkable.
