Item Description
Intergrown, translucent yellow fluorite "egg yokes" are aesthetically set on the angled basalt matrix between a carpet of glassy quartz points and below towers of dogtooth calcite crystals. The prominent calcite is a so-called "skunk", having striped bands of oxide-tinted calcite running down the edges of the scalenohedron. Choice, very aesthetic and rare combination material from this famous find.
