About this specimen

Sichuan baryte with calcite at 5.7 cm; a small cabinet piece. The supplier did not record a weight.

Baryte's tabular blades are its typical habit, and its weight in the hand is the easiest field test.

Calcium carbonate in its rhombohedral form, calcite is soft (Mohs 3) and takes a bright vitreous to pearly lustre on fresh faces.

Sichuan hosts Xuebaoding, Jinkouhe and Leshan, sources of aquamarine, scheelite, prehnite, gypsum and the epidote-quartz skarn specimens seen here.

Dimensions place it in the small cabinet range, 5.7 × 0.5 × 4 cm (2.24 × 0.20 × 1.57 in). Otherwise the piece is sold exactly as photographed.

Carbonate: never clean with acid or vinegar.

Each specimen is individually photographed and catalogued before it is listed.
