This is a lustrous, gemmy, cognac-colored crystal of zircon perched on a sugary, tan matrix of calcite. The tetragonal form of the almost, 1.0 cm zircon crystal, is very evident. It is a superb thumbnail, and of a quality that is extremely rare for the locality - let alone in an aesthetic specimen of any kind! This complex crystal is stunning.
