                                                El Hamman, Morocco 

Starting at  the beginning, clear Calcite crystal extended in all directions off the top of this specimen. A thin, jet black coating then attached itself to the crystals and these were then partially covered by a subsequent layer of opaque Calcite crystals strategically located on only one side of each crystal. The entire specimen measures 2½ x 1½ x 1½" and there is some dark brass Pyrite, as micro crystals, also on the specimen.

CALCITE
Rosiclare Level, Denton Mine
Ozark-Mahoning Company, Harris Creek District, Southern Illinois 

A single scalenohedral Calcite crystal, honey colored and measuring  7/8 x ½ x ½" is placed on a small piece of matrix making the entire specimen 1¼ x ¾ x 1½". No damage to the main or side crystal. Ex. George Feist collection.


 

  

 

On this 1.5 x 0.75 x 0.75", dark brown Calcite stalactite sit numerous white Calcite crystals. Many of these white Calcite crystals have bands of clear Calcite that cut straight through the middle of the crystals and which can be better seen in the enlargements. While on this front face of the Stalactite the white Calcite crystals are further apart, thus allowing the dark brown to come through, the Calcites on the back of the specimen are more close packed and it appears white. The top is terminated with the clear, banded Calcites with the brown Calcite also present. Overall in very good condition.  Certain of the Calcite crystals fluoresce bright red under SW UV.

Numerous white to clear crystals of Calcite cover the entire brown stalactite of Calcite thus producing this 2 x 0.75 x 0.75" stalactite of Calcite. The entire stalactite resembles this front face image and all of the crystals are in good shape. Quite different from the darker version above. Certain of the Calcite crystals fluoresce bright red under SW UV.
