Calcite on Sibnite
Dachang Ore Field, Nandan
Guangxi Province, China
6.9 x 4.8 x 3.3 CM (cabinet)
price: $150
An attractive and rather unusual habit of Calcite on Stibnite from the less well-known locality of Nandan. The main Calcite is a sharp scalenohedron 3.5 CM long that seems to be heavily included by Stibnite giving it a dark, cloudy interior. The overall composition and esthetics are very good, there is nice contrast with the metallic Stibnite crystals. Not typical, this is quite different from other such combos I have seen.
