Item Description
A striking and aesthetic, V-twin pair of stout, pretty pastel-pink, manganoan calcite rhombs. The translucent crystals have a silky luster and trigonal terminations. Dal'negorsk, like Tsumeb, is legendary for calcite quality and diversity and this is an outstanding and pristine example. FLAMING neon-orange fluorescence! Ex Herb Obodda Collection # 2760.
