The Calcite crystals on this specimen are a peach color (pink with orange tones). When examined under magnification, it can be seen the crystals are actually composed of stacks of smaller crystals. The Calcite has grown on the surfaces of white colored Albite crystals upon which rest small Quartz crystals and micro Pyrite crystals. From a location from which specimens are seldom available.

Condition: Good

Flaws: There is a broken area (at the far left in the first two photos).
