Cemetery Ridge Development, Sweetwater mine, Viburnum Trend, Reynolds Co., Missouri, USA
description:
Glassy gem golden crystals of calcite measuring to 3.7 cm in size across this breccia matrix. One crystal is slightly cleaved on its lower termination, overall I think this piece is in very good condition. The quality of these crystals is much better than normal for this mining district and species.
