About the Item
This piece is a uniquely special find perfect for the discerning mineral enthusiast. It's unusual to find pieces of this calcium carbonate mineral with such spectacular color and wonderful botryoidal crystal formation, not to mention the fantastically druzy crystallization that brings luster to the entire surface of the specimen. This aragonite comes from a pocket very recently discovered in Afghanistan and is sure to elevate any fine minerals collection.
