Sulfur with Calcite
specimen number:
5004132
location:
Agrigento, Sicily, Italy
description:
Beautiful cabinet piece showing a crystallized calcite matrix, this hosting brilliant yellow crystals of native sulfur to 1.5 cm in size throughout. This is in good condition with just minimal chipping on what I consider the backside of the piece, this not seen when the specimen is displayed. The calcite crystals are intensely fluorescent red under longwave ultraviolet light.
