Calcite with Galena
specimen number:
3161018
location:
Sweetwater Mine, Viburnum Trend, Reynolds Co., Missouri, USA
description:
Beautiful lustrous almost gemmy yellow crystal of calcite 7.5 cm in height coming off a breccia matrix with octahedral crystals of galena to 1.2 cm in size. The prominent crystal of of calcite is in excellent condition all around. Very slight chipping to some of the galena crystals on the matrix, this very minimal and sparse. Overall I think in very choice condition.
