Manganocalcite (twinned/fluorescent)

Item Description

Lustrous and translucent, with a light pink color, this twinned manganocalcite fluoresces a bright orange color. The twinning is sharp, and one of the more rare habits for calcite particularly in this locality. The color is such a pleasing, soft, pink, and really stands out! It is not "pale" as they too often are. Superb twining, and form, make this one stand out amidst so many others from here that are boring in comparison. valued $750
