Manganoan Calcite (fluorescent!)

Item Description

Sugary, frosted, light pastel-pink dogtooth calcite crystals are dramatically set jackstraw-style on this large very aesthetic and uncommon calcite varietal from this well-known deposit, noted for outstanding gemmy sphalerite crystals. The crystal reach about 5.0 cm on this striking and excellent two-sided plate. Hard to see, but there are scattered clusters of small second generation gem colorless nailhead rhombs, adding pizzazz. Essentially pristine, with only one hard-to-see gently cleaved termination. BRIGHT neon orange-pink fluorescence!!
