Calcite

specimen number:
4751114

location:
Crogarth mine, Cleator Moor, Cumbria, England, UK

description:
An unusual British specimen with colorless to slightly pinkish red crystals semi lustrous and to 3.0 cm in length across the top of this matrix. These are slightly translucent. There is very minimal micro-chipping present, I think this one is in really good condition. A lot of paperwork comes with the specimen as seen at the end of the video. This is ex Clarence Bement collection and comes with an old label from the American Museum of Natural History in New York. There is also a letter documenting the attributed locality, as well as a series of other previous labels.
