Weight: 142 g

Dimensions: 3.5 × 1.8 × 1.5 in

Locale: Casteel Mine, Bixby, Iron County, Missouri, USA 🇺🇸

This is a really beautiful Missouri calcite featuring two large main crystals naturally stacked across one another, giving the piece a tall, sculptural shape. The calcite has a warm pale yellow to champagne color with gEmmy translucency, lots of internal detail, and naturally textured growth across the crystal faces.

The backside is completely different from the front and is covered in dolomite and golden pyrite, making this one just as interesting to turn around and look at from the other side. Small flashes of pyrite are also scattered around the calcite near the base. A great example of the mineral combinations found at the Casteel Mine, with an especially nice overall formation.
