Spectacular large cabinet Museum size piece amber colored glassy mostly gemmy scalenohedral crystals of calcite measuring to 14.0 cm in size across the top of a lustrous black crystallized sphalerite matrix. There are large white balls of crystallized barite throughout. Minimal cleaving present to some of the calcite terminations to be expected, this still in very good condition. This one is quite heavy, it will ship on a pallet. There is no extra cost for this.
