About this specimen

Pale overlapping calcite growths form an elongated upright mass with several brassy metallic crystals near the upper and side edges. Fine dark specks occur between the white layers, while one small bright angular crystal stands out at the top. The lower surface has a rippled, stacked appearance.

The metallic accents are sparse enough that the pale layered structure remains dominant. Translucent edges contrast with broader cloudy surfaces and tiny reflective grains. The calcite association is reported to show pink fluorescence, beyond the white-and-brassy appearance visible here.

Locality: Longyan, Fujian, China. Weight: 165 g (5.82 oz). Dimensions: 8 × 4 × 4 cm (80 × 40 × 40 mm; 3.15 × 1.57 × 1.57 in).

Weight and dimensions refer to the specimen alone, excluding the display base. Any display base shown with the specimen is included.

The specimen pictured is the individual piece offered.

The identity of the brassy associated crystals has not been confirmed.
