location:
New Glencrieff Mine, Wanlockhead, Dumfries & Galloway, Scotland, UK
description:
Very fine classic old time Scottish specimen with colorless semi lustrous translucent scalenohedral crystals of calcite to 5.0 cm in length across the front of this matrix with minor sphalerite. I think in great condition, the piece sits perfectly by itself or display. There is an old label glued to a small piece of Styrofoam that accompanies the specimen.
