Daye Co., Huangshi Prefecture, Hubei Province, China
description: Colorless slightly translucent and lustrous crystals of calcite to 2.0 cm in size, these preferentially coated by both bluish iridescent and golden brassy micro chalcopyrite crystals. The chalcopyrite coatings make for a very pretty specimen. Minor chipping is present but very sparse, overall I think this in very good condition. Measures 13.0 x 9.0 x 4.0 cm in size. This will sit nicely by itself for display. Shipping weight: 2.39 pounds.
Size: 13.0 x 9.0 x 4.0 cm (cabinet)
