Calcite on Chalkopyrite (M781)
Lot of these pieces from this famous classic locality are pale or more light in color - this here shows a very strong saturation of intense yellow color. The crystal is set exposed in a diagonal position on matrix which is mostly covered by dark Chalkopyrite aggregates. The specimen is from an old discovery and comes with an old label from a local dealer with the exact locality information. But back to the 95mm tall main crystal: it shows wonderful structure - impossible to show all amazing details on a photography. All faces show exceptional; mirror-like luster; it´s the very best quality of any Calcite you can imagine. Great contrast and very aesthetic assemble.
