A cluster of gemmy, golden calcite crystals, the largest containing a phantom! This is a floater cluster with no attachments, and all the terminations are complete. There is no damage. A card from Gary Hansen accompanies this specimen, showing it to have been found in January of 1974 (by him, perhaps, as he was a field collector, and the exactness of the date would seem to suggest it) .
