Elmwood Mine, Smith Co., Tennessee, USA
description:
Glassy translucent almost transparent beautiful amber colored double terminated crystals of calcite set on a small shard of breccia matrix with minor sphalerite. Measures 15.0 x 10.5 x 10.5 cm, this sits up perfectly by itself for display and shows well all around. Slight cleaving present is seen, still I think in good condition. Very attractive with good luster and translucency added to the excellent color. Shipping weight: 2.9 pounds. Ex Chris and Agatha Galas collection.
