Item Description

A fabulous, 3.7 cm, doubly terminated, water-clear, gem calcite scalenohedron is dramatically set on calcite matrix covered with smaller gem scalenohedrons AND textbook gem fishtail twins to about 1.0 cm! This is a SUPERB and pristine calcite specimen from the very obscure Bruce Mine, where specimens of ANY species are RARE! A must for the calcite or Arizona collector. I bought this back in the early 1990s for $100, when it was collected, at a Tucson show.
