7075117
location:
Casteel No. 35 Mine, Viburnum Trend, Iron Co., Missouri, USA
description:
Gemmy yellow scalenohedral crystals of calcite to 3.0 cm in height scattered attractively over the top of a 15.5 x 15.5 x 6.0 cm crystallized quartz matrix. This is a floater, completely crystallized all around. Slight cleaving to some of the calcite crystals, still in very good condition. Nice association piece, as good crystallized quartz is not terribly common in this mining district. Shipping weight: 4.89 pounds.
Size: 15.5 x 15.5 x 6.0 cm (large-cabinet)
