Item Description

The famous cobalt-bearing Calcite specimens from the Aghbar Mine in Morocco are renowned for their color. It's rare to find faceted gems of this material, so when a stone like this comes along, it's always a treat. This "Trillion" cut stone has a soft pinkish hue, with good internal gemminess, though it's not clean. Most gem collectors don't have a cobalt-bearing Calcite in their collections, and if you've ever wanted to get your hands on one of these attractive stones, look no further.
