A UNIQUE and showy combination specimen from the famous Himalaya Mine. A lustrous, bi-colored, 3.4 cm watermelon-pink to green tourmaline crystal, along with smaller watermelon-pink tourmalines and a single green tourmaline crystal are attached to a HUGE laumontite-covered, 5.7 cm, flattened rhombohedral calcite crystal! The zeolite laumontite is EXTREMELY RARE at the Himalaya Mine and this may be the LARGEST calcite crystal ever recovered from the mine! Ex Korpi, Chuck Houser and Miller Calcite Collections. 7.0 x 6.7 x 6.7 cm
