Item Description

Classic, colorful and showy combination material with a bonus from this well-known Arkansas Ordovician limestone quarry complex. The blocky limestone matrix is covered with classic pearlescent, bright salmon-pink, curved dolomite rhombs. A rich sprinkling of tiny golden chalcopyrite sphenoids is a typical and excellent accessory. The focal point is the well-placed 2.2 cm glassy, translucent, colorless nailhead calcite rhomb with silky luster faces. The BONUS is the white calcite scalenohedron phantom in the interior! An excellent combination from the Joe Lobell Collection.
