Item Description

A good display specimen from Asturias featuring very sharp, lustrous, off-white colored scalenohedra of Calcite associated with iron-stained yellow micro Quartz crystals on matrix. The largest Calcite measures 3.1 cm long. The piece is in fairly good shape overall, with a few contacted crystals, but still good. A worthwhile and aesthetic association specimen from this well known Fluorite producing district.
