Description

Rarely seen classic: a quite large plate of a matrix of limonite/calcite hosting numerous flat calcite crystals dominated by the base pinacoid with iron oxide inclusions rendering them yellowish-brownish. Very good condition (there are some marginal contacts) and an old time specimen.

This specimen comes out of the special calcite collection of german collector Ingo Löffler who built up a great selection of calcites worldwide during the last decades including more rare localities. Ingo is changing his collection focus so you now have the opportunity to get some nice stuff. Comes with his label. Also ex Arthur L. Flagg collection w/ label.
