Item Description
Specimens from the Fletcher Mine are rare compared to those from the prolific Sweetwater and Brushy Creek Mines of the Viburnum Trend. A 4.5 cm, frosted, translucent, doubly terminated calcite scalenohedron is jauntily perched on splendent galena matrix on this showy and aesthetic combination specimen. The calcite is complete all-around and nearly pristine. A very trivial termination cleave and one prism face with a contact, but no damage, per se, are noted. Ex Miller Calcite Collection # 2848.
