Anhydrite with Calcite (Ref: 17.1-648)
Naica Mine. Naica, Municipio de Saucillo, Chihuahua, Mexico
76mm x 62mm x 35mm
minID: 006-7WH
Exceptional quality and esthetics, these blue Anyhydite crystals in the flat blade form are dusted with small sparkling Calcites. Older specimen from Naica, that produced some of the worlds best Anhydrite crystals, now quite uncommon on the market and very rare in this quality. Sharp undamaged terminations and baby-blue color. The tiny Calcites are mostly colorless transparent, doubly terminated scalenohedrons but some have dark unknown inclusions as well. Ex Hitchings collection, this in an early 1960 vintage piece. Naica is now flooded and seems it will not again be worked. From: Well-Arranged Molecules
