Cobaltoan Calcite

The specimen has crystals of cobaltoan calcite on a calcitic matrix. Modified rhombic crystals of calcite have a deep magenta value very closely mimic the frosted surface luster of smithsonite. There is a very nice aggregate spread of crystals in a shallow recess. The pink value has a deep tone and the crystals have a subtle frosted luster with intricate delicate detail. The largest crystal is 0.8cm across.
