This image is copyrighted. Unauthorized reproduction prohibited.
This is a case of minerals found in the Beekmantown group dolostones of Ontario and Quebec put together by Jonathan Levinger.

Aside from quartz, dolomite, and calcite, there's chalcopyrite, baryte, and a couple of other usual suspects in there. Specimens are mostly from the St. Clothilde quarry in Quebec, and the Grant Quarry in Ontario.

On display at the 2011 Bancroft Gemboree.
