Description

This large specimen features numerous clusters of translucent to transparent, colorless to white, lustrous and sharp tabular hexagonal Calcite crystals in parallel orientation. Given the pseudo round shape and the stacked configuration of the crystals, I can see the reference to “poker chips.” This is an outstanding and beautiful example of Calcite “poker chip” crystal formation! In excellent condition.

Location: Fozichong Mine, Guangzi Zhuang Province, China
