Description/Interesting Notes:
A magnificent, old time example of quartz and calcite from this classic Arizona locality!!! This specimen consists of a long, slender quartz crystal that
hosts a selective covering of complex, spikey white calcite crystals!!! There is also a second, smaller quartz crystal
that is completely covered by calcite!!!
There is also an unidentified layer of darker colored, crystalline mineralization just below the calcite (possible pseudomorphs?)!!! The
quartz crystal is sharp, complete, and undamaged!!! The striking, two-toned selective coating of crystals and gracefully elongated quartz crystal result in a
most aesthetic specimen!!! This old time specimen is absolutely gorgeous in person!!! The pics don't even come close to doing this killer justice!!! This specimen
is from the collection of A.J. Beres!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
STAY TUNED!!! MORE AUCTIONS
WILL BE ADDED MONDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 3-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 16th!!!
