Calcite with Quartz Druse, Amethyst & Orange Iron-Oxide Veins
Low stock: 1 left
Calcite with quartz druse, amethyst, and orange iron-oxide veining from Artigas, Uruguay. A 624-gram cabinet specimen where calcite forms the structural base, coated in a sparkling layer of fine quartz druse.
Soft lilac amethyst points accent the edges, while bold iron-oxide seams — likely hematite or goethite — create vivid rust and earthy brown contrast throughout the structure. The layered mineral growth gives this piece exceptional texture and geological character.
