Calcite
An exceptional and highly aesthetic specimen featuring a double terminated grouping of calcite crystals measuring up to 11.0 cm in height, beautifully arranged on matrix to create a striking display piece. The crystals are well formed, sharp, and in super condition all around. This specimen hails from the Pugh Quarry in Ohio, a historic locality renowned for producing large, high quality calcite crystals. Quarrying here began in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, primarily for limestone and associated industrial uses, but collectors quickly recognized the aesthetic potential of the well formed calcite crystals found in the pockets. Over the decades, specimens from Pugh Quarry became highly sought after by both regional and national mineral collectors, prized for their size, clarity, and classic crystallography. Today, fine examples like this are treasured for their combination of large crystal size, excellent condition, and historical provenance, representing a classic Ohio mineral locality in peak display form.
