Calcite and Dolomite after Calcite on Quartz





Valenciana mine, Guanajuato, Guanajuato state, MEXICO

Size: 16.3 cm x 10.8 cm x 4.6 cm

GREAT specimen from Guanajuato. Very rare. Light yellow Dolomite after Calcite crystals. Some of the crystals are hollow, showing remains of Calcite inside. Second translucent, lustrous Calcite generation on the Dolomite. All aesthetically setted on a crystallized Quartz matrix. Pics don't do justice, much better in person!!!

PRICE: $60
