Calcite Crystal Cluster - Canada (67g)
A delicate calcite crystal cluster from Canada weighing 67 grams and measuring approximately 3 x 2 inches. The specimen features dozens of interlocking white to pale cream rhombohedral calcite crystals growing on a dark matrix. The crystals display clean geometric faces with the classic calcite cleavage form, creating a textured, architectural surface that catches light across its many facets.
Calcite is one of the most common and widely distributed minerals, but well-crystallized clusters with clearly defined rhombohedral faces like this one are prized by collectors. Canadian calcite deposits produce clean, well-formed specimens with excellent crystal definition. The dark matrix provides natural contrast that highlights the pale crystal forms.
