Item Description
A very appealing specimen of manganoan calcite. The aesthetic and sculpturally stacked crystals have parallel growth in layered, elongated, clusters, but the crystal faces remain distinctive along the surface, allowing you to appreciate the good luster. HOT neon-orange fluorescence. Ex Eugene Carmichael Collection.
