Item Description
A very appealing two-sided specimen of manganoan calcite. The aesthetically stacked crystals have grown in layered, elongated, rounded clusters, but the crystal faces remain distinctive along the surface, allowing you to appreciate the good luster and sparkle that it creates. HOT neon-orange fluorescence. Ex Wallace Bates Collection.
