Great,off white, oil lustrous piece of manganoan calcite from the classic locality! Even when the rose color is not there, the smooth color of these calcite pieces is fantastic!The crystals are rhombohedra on pyramids and are set in a tight cluster! The crystals glow under UV radiation with an intense orange color! The piece is in great condition, with only one small spot and no more damage!
