Calcite on Hemimorphite (Ref: AX-12-178)
Santa Eulalia, Aquiles Serdan, Chihuahua, Mexico
116mm x 23mm x 23mm
minID: RGU-ELE
A most unusual form and combination. This transparent to translucent Calcite crystal is gemmy and twinned. It is perched on a finger-like shaft, covered with hundred of tiny Hemimorphite blades and also small Calcite crystals. The association and form of this structure is very odd; this was found in the 1970's. The Calcite is complete except for a cleave on the back left side that is not seen on display. Due to that cleave this is not a specimen for the ultra perfectionists, but is incredible for the locality and a very choice display piece presenting an exotic form. From: Well-Arranged Molecules
