OKD-574 Calcite Stalactites De Chang Mine, Sichuan Prov., China. This
is one of those rare specimens which I knew the moment I saw it was important.
It is not the biggest or flashiest specimen I have seen from this location,
but…. how many times to you see a pair of stalactites that displays this well on
its own without any form of external support? The base has been sawed thus
allowing the piece total stability when displayed upright. This pair of
stalactites measures 12 cm tall. A fine piece with no damage and views from
every side. 750$ firm.
OKB-507 Calcite China. Attractive and
unusual calcite with crystals to 6 cm long. Specimen is 14.5 cm long and 7
cm high. Attractive damage free piece which views nicely from all sides.
60$
OKB-504 Stibnite in Calcite China. Clear to
slightly yellow calcites are penetrated at various angles by metallic, high
luster stibnites. One tiny contact spot with no other visible damage of
any form. 4 x 4 x 3 cm. Views well from all angles. 70$
OKA-670 Calcite Unknown (undisclosed) location in China. Bright green,
translucent calcite looks like fluorite. Forms a thick coating on matrix plates.
VERY unusual. Crystals to 1 cm. This material is a must for any calcite
collector. Both pieces stand on edge and display great. Sorry, only 1 specimens
available.
OKA-670B 15 x 8 cm plate. 40$
OKD-019 Calcite Lieping Mine, Cheng Zhu City, Hunan Prov., China.
