Description

Reimersgruen is a quite unknown location in Saxony. Nevertheless some very nice specimens were found there. This one is a hand-sized specimen with very good crystallized calcite. The crystals are very complex intergrown and partly covered by a brown layer of a microcrystalized mineral. Some faces are not effected by it and show their high luster. The specimens whole surface is twinkling in sunlight. The back-side had contact to the rock.
