Quartz (Var: Amethyst), Calcite
Bombori, Chayanta Province, Potosi Department, Bolivia
Small Cabinet, 5.4 x 3.0 x 2.3 cm
SOLD
This is a fine specimen consisting of superb, sharp, gemmy, highly lustrous, prismatic, purple color crystals of Amethyst measuring up to 2.2 cm sitting atop white/colorless, modified rhombohedra of Calcite with underlain green "Chlorite" on matrix. This piece is remarkable for Bolivia as the quality of the crystals is as fine as I have seen for Amethyst from any Bolivian locality.
