Colorless mostly gemmy rhombohedral crystals of calcite measuring to 1.0 cm in size across the top of a dolomite crystal matrix. In good condition. The underlying matrix is crystallized dolomite replacing a forming casts after now gone scalenohedral calcite. Previous label gives the location as seen in Morocco. Personally I think this is from Bulgaria.
