Calcite

Guanajuato, Mexico

6.28cm x 5.5cm x 2.5cm

Ex. Donald C. Gabriel Collection

Ex. A. E. Seaman Mineral Museum No. DCG 1274


Description/Interesting Notes:

A magnificent old time example of calcite from Mexico!!! This specimen consists of a large, complex single crystal of calcite in association with a small amount of quartz!!! The calcite has a most attractive light lavender color and sharply striated faces!!! This specimen is sharply crystallized on both sides with a paper-thin layer of matrix (quartz?) sandwiched in the middle!!! There are two patches of tiny quartz crystals on the reverse!!! The crystal is in fantastic condition all around with sharp edges and an unblemished face!!! The crystal is more lustrous and translucent than the pictures show!!! This specimen retains a label from A.E. Seaman Mineral Museum with Gabriel Collection notation!!! Simply gorgeous in person!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!!
