Calcite with Quartz
specimen number:
7991259
location:
Maharashtra, India
description:
Blocky crystals of what the previous label refers to as calcite, these measuring to 1.8 cm in size, on a matrix of crystallized quartz with an orange red heulandite crystal. A thin layer of sparkling crystallized quartz covers everything. As I mentioned, the previous labels refer to these as calcite crystals, I suspect in reality that that is a fluorapophyllite crystal. In great condition.
Size: 10.5 x 7.0 x 4.0 cm (cabinet)
