Calcite on Smithsonite (Chris Cowan Coll.

Item Description

Pretty corsages of flattened flower petal-like calcite rhombs are richly and aesthetically scattered on the thin cavernous matrix plate covered with sparkly, juicy gray smithsonite botyroids on this very showy and excellent two-sided combination from the famed Kelly Mine. The back is covered with a crust of calcite, as the calcite fluoresces pink. Choice and unusual combination material from the Chris Cowan New Mexico Collection.
