Item Description
Three, glassy, translucent, beautifully intergrown light pink, nailhead, manganoan calcite disks are dramatically accented by the laminated matrix of bubby, botryoidal siderite. The impressive large disk is pristine, except for two small scratches. Dramatic, classic and excellent combination material from the famous mines at Dal'negorsk. Older material from the 1990s finds. Neon-orange fluorescence. MUCH, MUCH BETER IN PERSON!
