Dolomite, Calcite (Var: Manganoan Calcite)
San Vicente Mine, Guanajuato, Mun. de Guanajuato, Guanajuato, Mexico
Small Cabinet, 5.9 x 3.9 x 2.9 cm
SOLD
The original pink calcite crystals here have been pseudomorphed by glimmering, snowy-white dolomite, perfectly retaining the sharp faces of the calcites. Some of the calcites are actually etched out from the inside of the pseudomorphs, so they are hollow now; you can see this from the one crystal that is incomplete at the edge of the specimen (lower left in photo). Ex. Consie Prince Collection.
