About this specimen
Chalk-white blades open outward from a single root, each one dulled by a sugary micro-crust so that the whole group reads matte — except where a clear, glassy blade shows through from behind and catches the light. Smudges of dark grey-green cling to two or three faces, the only colour in an otherwise snow-bright piece.
Aragonite carries the same chemistry as calcite, CaCO3, but assembles it in the orthorhombic system, and it habitually twins three individuals together until the result looks deceptively six-sided. The frosting on this Guizhou group is a later generation of minute aragonite needles grown over the earlier blades, which is what turns a transparent mineral opaque. Mohs 3.5 to 4 and brittle at the tips: dust it with air, never with a cloth.
It measures 4.6 × 4.1 × 3.6 cm and weighs only 45 g, and it comes on the clear acrylic block seen in the photographs, which lifts the sprays clear of the shelf. The block is included, and nothing on this page stands in for the piece you will unwrap.
