Calcite with Quartz
specimen number:
7993007
location:
Qinglong Mine, Dachang, Guizhou, China
description:
Two different generations of crystallized calcite across the top of this quartz crystal matrix. This is in good condition with just minimal chipping present along one back edge of a calcite crystal as shown in the video. While this came labeled to us as calcite with quartz, I suspect the white sparkling crystals are dolomite. The last generation calcite crystals are brilliantly fluorescent.
Size: 10.0 x 8.0 x 4.0 cm (cabinet)
