Translucent yellow globular Calcite with smaller spheres of Calcite on black basalt matrix. Larger Calcite is like a translucent yellow gumdrop. The starkly contrasting color of the Calcite against the basalt has always made these specimens collectable and desirable. This one is especially good with the abundance of smaller spheres. Valued at $250.
