A superb example of amber calcite on matrix from the famous locality in Indiana. Great color, luster, translucency and form.

A pair of water clear prisms of calcite on matrix. There’s a tiny nick on one of the terminations. This little guy was found during an excavation near the airport in Skardu, and I don’t think there’ll be any more. A find for the serious calcite collector!

Clear and lustrous, intergrown calcite crystals on a reddish brown matrix of dolomite, with minor duftite. Pretty specimen.

Three groups of flowery white calcite crystals with grey tips (from sulfide inclusions) sit on a straw yellow dolomite matrix. Aesthetic specmen.

A beautiful, twinned, very gemmy calcite prism sits on a bit of purple fluorite. Super miniature mined in 1985.

Several columnar crystal aggregates of kutnohorite have been completely replaced by manganoan calcite and are sprinkled with a dust of manganese. Fluoresces orange under both LW and SW.

Clear calcite rhombs with a bit of malachite sit on on a creamy dolomite stalactite.

Sharp and gemmy lustrous prisms of pastel yellow calcite on a matrix of light dolomite rhombs that are sprinkled with dark green olivenite spheres. Unusual habit for olivenite.

A crown of translucent, brownish black lustrous crystals of cassiterite sit on the tip of a silvery, brilliant group of arsenopyrites with minor muscovite. Another cassiterite group and some siderites sit at the rear of the piece. Super display piece from this classic locale!

Very deep root beer colored cubes of fluorite intermixed with white celestite blades. Notice that the edges are translucent. Old classic from the midwest!
