Item Description

Mineral specimens are RARE from Virginia anyhow and I have never seen one from this Virginia cave. Bubbly aragonite botryoids sculpturally cover the large matrix plate on this impressive rarity. A must for the species or locality collector. Ghostly white fluoresence. Valued by the former dealer at $350, whose label says this is calcite.
