Calcite from Korshunovskoye iron deposit, Irkutsk Oblast, Russia

A large and gemmy dark honey-orange calcite crystal placed aesthetically on dark green spherulitic clinochlore var. seraphinite crystals. The crystal is very lustrous and has an interesting surface texture. The rarity makes up for the minor damage.
