description:
Lush green crystallized malachite covering approximately 1/2 of the top of this 9.5 x 8.5 x 5.0 cm crystallized calcite matrix. The scalenohedral calcite crystals are glassy and mostly transparent, these measure to 1.0 cm. Minimal cleaving to some of the calcite crystals, still I think this in very good condition.
