Description |
An unusually attractive specimen with Calaverite crystals laying flat among rolling Quartz druse, and so not etched or cleaved out of surrounding matrix as you usually see for this material. Rather, the natural matrix surface is the host for embedded Calaverite crystals of unusual thick and platy form, looking more solid and robust like Andorite than normal wispy Calaverite. The cluster of aggregate crystals is about 1.4 x 1 cm across. Ex. Rice Northwest Museum Collection.
