Calcite with Galena
specimen number:
4561010
location:
Sweetwater mine, Viburnum Trend, Reynolds Co., Missouri, USA
description:
A loose grouping of lustrous metallic galena crystals hosting very attractive lustrous yellow translucent crystals of calcite measuring to 5.0 cm in length. This one is not perfect, along one edge of the calcite crystal grouping are a few small cleaved crystals. These are shown up close in the video. The bottom of the galena crystal grouping is cleaved as seen in the video as well. This still is incredibly aesthetic and good combination specimens are not easy to come by from this locality.
Size: 14.0 x 8.5 x 6.5 cm (cabinet)
