Calcite (Var: Manganoan Calcite)

This mesmerizing, complete-all-around specimen is composed of dozens of disc-shaped calcite crystals arranged into a pagoda-like structure with stalks shooting out in either direction. It is complete all around save for the very bottom which acts as a natrual base for display and is quite distinct from previous finds at this mine. In person, it has a pleasing pale pink/mauvre hue to it. 12 x 8.5 x 8 cm
