Description
This visually arresting specimen features bright, translucent pink calcite crystals emerging from a richly textured matrix accented by kolwezite and delicate coatings of shattuckite. The interplay between the vibrant rose tones, pale blue mineralization, and deeper earthy hues creates a naturally layered composition that feels both complex and harmonious. The calcite crystals retain excellent form and presence, offering depth and dimension from multiple viewing angles.
Dimensions & Weight
Collector’s Notes
Pink calcite crystals with strong terminations and clear association minerals are increasingly sought after. In this specimen, kolwezite adds rarity and mineralogical interest, while shattuckite introduces striking blue contrast without distracting from the dominant calcite. A standout specimen that bridges aesthetic beauty and serious collector appeal.
Highlights
Gemmy pink calcite crystal with strong terminations
Rare kolwezite association
Rare shattuckite adding mineralogical complexity
Excellent contrast between crystal and secondary minerals
High visual impact from multiple display angles
Metaphysical Properties
Pink calcite is often associated with emotional healing, compassion, and heart-centered energy. Shattuckite is linked to intuition and clarity, while kolwezite is valued for its grounding and stabilizing qualities. Together, these minerals create a specimen that feels both soothing and quietly powerful.
Mineralogy
Primary Mineral: Calcite (pink variety)
Associated Minerals: Kolwezite, Shattuckite
Crystal System: Trigonal
Luster: Vitreous on calcite; matte to earthy on associated minerals
