Perched aesthetically, high on a matrix of drusy calcite, are several glassy and gemmy, colorless, calcite crystals to 2.6 cm in length. The longest crystal is also doubly terminated (though with very slight edge wear on one tip, which can be removed with acid if desired). The calcite crystals are absolutely limpid and the form is highly unusual
