Wonderful Calcite with Epitaxial Goethite
About the Item
This stunning formation consists of a large pyramidal calcite on a bed of
deep purple amethyst. The split calcite with unusual epitaxial goethite
and a second generation of amethyst growth near the top. A wonderful
piece.
This piece was legally and ethically sourced directly in the prestigious mines of Uruguay, South America. Uruguayan amethyst is internationally recognized as being the finest and most aesthetic amethyst in the world, due to its intense deep purple coloration, the large size of its peaked crystals, and its durability. These crystals were formed over 120-140 million years during the Cretaceous period, and as all of our pieces are formed naturally, they are completely unique and unrepeatable natural wonders of art.
