Large cave Aragonite w/ Hyalite Opal (fluorescent!) Tom Wolfe Coll.

Item Description

A dramatic large 2-generation cave aragonite specimen with a surprising SW UV fluorescent neon-green hyalite opal coating! This fantastic looking piece looks like a royal barge. The large first generation "tent" for the pharoah, emperor or king is composed of striking dense arborscent stacked clusters of pearlescent, glassy aragonite crystals. The prominent "prow" of the barge is composed of a second generation of sugary, sparkly stacked rounded clusters of aragonite. A surreal, fascinating and essentially pristine 360-degree large cave aragonite with surprising hyalite opal from renowned mines at Santa Eulalia. Exceptional form and rare older combination material from the Tom Wolfe Calcite Collection. A must for the species or locality collector.
