Calcite, Mottramite

A SHARP AND CLASSIC rhombohedron, simple in geometry and all the more striking for this, sits perched atop a stalk of mottramite completely covered on all sides by smaller calcites. This is a very dramatic specimen, overall! This sharp, simple rhomb is the most desirable form of Tsumeb calcites, to me. But few specimens present so well. Ex. Charlie Key stock.
