Calcite

In appearance, these "poker chip" calcite crystals closely resemble the famous Charcas, Mexico, specimens of decades ago. Yet they are from a recent, new find in China of the last few years. Emplaced on matrix is a cluster of these waxy, white, modified rhombs of calcites measuring up to 7.5 cm across.
