DT Calcite twin & Fluorite on Baryte (Joe Kielbaso Coll.)

Item Description

Combination specimens of this quality are rare from this less well-known Kentucky locale. An impressive, 4.2 cm doubly terminated and twinned calcite crystal is aesthetically set on massive baryte matrix richly covered with color-zoned light purple to colorless fluorite cubes. The string of cubes running down the calcite are a super accent. The right tip of the calcite is dinged and the left tip has only the most trivial of bruising, which are certainly only modest detractions. This is an exceptional and uncommon combination for this locale. Ghostly white fluorite fluorescence. Ex Joe Kielbaso Collection, a well-known field collector and mineral dealer.
