About this specimen

Dimensions: 5.0 × 4.5 × 2.5 cm (1.97 × 1.77 × 0.98 in); longest edge 50 mm (1.97 in).

Pale calcite forms an irregular matrix with small curved areas of an unidentified red mineral from Shimen, Hunan. Cream crystal surfaces and fine druse cover most of the specimen, while the red material appears in several narrow arcs and pockets that create a distinctive accent. The red component is not identified and is left explicitly unresolved. Multiple views support the estimated display dimensions and show the natural contrast across the compact cluster. Estimated weight: 45 g / 1.59 oz, calculated from its dimensions.
