Item Description

An dramatic and excellent combination specimen from Dalnegorsk. An impressive, 5.5 cm, cluster of intergrown, sharp, translucent, light pastel-pink, calcite rhombs is jauntily perched on splendent, melted look and skeletal, galena cuboctahedrons. The scattered sprays of tiny quartz crystals, many sceptered, are a super accent! Very light pink fluorescence. Classic, highly representative and uncommon combination material from Dalnegorsk.
