Where many Bou Azzer cobaltoan calcites are virtually opaque, this one consists of a thick TRANSLUCENT crust of beautiful bright pink on a knob (the back side of the specimen looks like the back side of those Uruguayan amethyst knobs, showing concentric deposition). There are reflective micro-faces all across the surface of the half-dome crystals. 4.8 x 4 x 2.2 cm
