Calcite

Here is something that is getting very hard to find on the market, with the closing of the mine: a SUPERB gemmy calcite twin from the Elmwood. What is more, it is perched on a perfect natural "base" of sphalerite and calcite! The crystal is contacted on back where it grew against matrix, but is complete all around. And while the great majority of these crystals have tip damage, there is only virtually microscopic wear in one tiny place on one of the tips - you cannot really see it with the naked eye. So it is in FABULOUS condition. Great golden color and super glassy luster! 7.6 x 6.3 x 3.5cm
