Description:A classic, glassy, cluster of elongated calcite scalenohedrons richly included with bright copper from the historic Keweenaw Peninsula of Michigan. The lustrous calcite crystals have beautiful striations on this complete all-around cluster, that has green epidote on the matrix. A trivial amount of edgewear is noted, but certainly does not detract from the overall quality of this desirable old-timer. Ex Wes Parker Collection. Certainly around 100 years old. Valued at $400. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON.
