Calcite on Quartz
specimen number:
4191239
location:
Irai, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil
description:
Very pretty specimen with colorless lustrous gemmy crystals of calcite to 1.5 cm length across the top of this light purple crystallized amethyst matrix. Minor bluish green celadonite present as well. Some micro-cleaving present, this to be expected on a piece like this, I feel that the specimen is in great condition.
