The large yellowish to colorless rhombs of Calcite capture your eyes immediately on this unique specimen. The matrix is composed of mostly first generation much smaller microscopic Calcite. Of note are numerous lime green micro crystals strung about the matrix. These are possibly Duftite or Mottramite. The largest Calcite rhomb measures 2cm.
