Calcite

Unknown Owner
Thick tabular crystal of Calcite with very well defined faces and edges and with good luster and a very nice honey color. Disposed on matrix. From a small find in the Granitic quarries north of Madrid where only a few pieces were recovered. The crystal has a very good size for the locality. In excellent condition. No damage.
