MEXICAN
CALCITE
SPECIMENS FOR SALE
We
recently
acquired a modest lot of very unusual
Mexican Calcite specimens from a new pocket in the Santa Eulalia
District, Mexico. Specimens consist of sharp scalenohedral
Calcites, coated partially with Red hematite, some having internal
phantoms that will glow Red under bright light. Called " Red
Phantoms" , these examples are considered quite rare and desirable. As
a bonus, these Red, scalenohedral crystals are partially overgrown by a
second generation of clear, modified Rhombohedral Calcites, making very
beautiful display specimens. Each piece also fluoresces a rich Orange
under shortwave ultraviolet light. Sizes range
from miniature to cabinet. We got a great deal on this lot,
so we're offering the below specimens at very affordable pricing.
