Description:Here we have a beautiful display piece showing a "flower" or "tree"-like growth with very pale yellow to white, gemmy, sharp, somewhat lustrous, scalenohedral crystals. The crystals certainly look more organic than mineral. The top portion of the specimen is a thin layer or "ridge" of Calcite with a secondy growth of smaller scalenohedra of the same quality as those below. A very cool Calcite from what is one of the most productive specimen producing countries in the world.
