Vanadinite with Calcite

Unknown Owner
A wonderful example from recent finds at this locality. Lustrous crystals of vanadinite to 1.0 cm in size scattered across matrix with colorless gemmy crystals of rhombohedral lustrous calcite. This is in really good condition, just slight damage on the backside of the piece.
