Item Description

Sparkly, glassy calcite rhombs cover both sides of this large very rich and showy two-sided plate from Broken Hill. One side is dramatically accented with two sharp, nailhead spar crystals, to 1.5 cm, and clusters of tiny iridescent chalcopyrite, adding pizzazz. Excellent, rich and classic large Broken Hill calcite with modest to good pink fluorescence (large crystals).
