3.2 x 3.2 x 2.4 cm. Lustrous, glassy, flattened, parallel-growth, poker-chip calcite crystals look like a bonnet atop the cluster of interpenetrating, translucent, sea-green fluorite octahedrons with pretty purple highlights on this showy and excellent combination piece from the much less well-known Heson Mine of Arizona. Collected by ace Arizona field collector George Godas.
