Item Description

An adorable and aesthetic combination from this well-known mine. Gemmy, amber, calcite crystals are strikingly set on the mounded matrix of sharp golden chalcopyrite sphenoids and starkly contrasting, bone-white, dolomite rhombs. All four of the major calcites are doubly terminated and are pristine. The stepped-growth faces really add pizzazz and the statuesque large calcite is 5.0 cm long. This cutie looks great from either side and displays without aid. Classic and superior Sweetwater combination material.
