Description

This is a very unique specimen. The brownish red and ash grey colour seen in places is the result of the goethite and iron oxidation which has covered the calcite crystals. The specimen is extremely bright, especially at places where it is black. One more particularity is the two types of crystallization – a scalenohedral and the classic pointy crystallization.
