Purple Axinite crystals intergrown with transparent Calcite crystals from an obscure Baja locality. Fine quality mound of crystals that is very hard to find and a must for a Baja or Mexican collection.

Calcite on Chalcedony from Aurora Mine, Charcas, San Luis Potosi, Mexico [db_pics/pics/c275a.jpg] Calcite on Chalcedony from Aurora Mine, Charcas, San Luis Potosi, Mexico [db_pics/pics/c275b.jpg] Calcite on Chalcedony from Aurora Mine, Charcas, San Luis Potosi, Mexico [db_pics/pics/c275c.jpg]

Transparent Calcite crystals atop pink Chalcedony. It's a stunning old specimen, however there is a cleave on the largest Calcite and I have priced it accordingly. The contrast between the transparent Calcite and the glow of the pink Chalcedony is very attractive.

A Baja classic specimen featuring a blocky 2cm Epidote crystal on matrix. The crystal is contacted on the backside, but the front is sharp and lustrous and it's double terminated. These are old, hard to come by specimens that only turn up when collections are recycled.
