A spectacular large cabinet specimen featuring dense coverage of natural bladed calcite crystals on a sparkling quartz matrix. Under 365nm UV light, the calcite fluoresces an intense fiery orange-red before transitioning into a striking green phosphorescent afterglow once the UV source is removed.
This substantial specimen displays hundreds of delicate bladed calcite crystals, punctuated by several larger, well-defined blades emerging from the matrix. The combination of exceptional crystal coverage, strong fluorescence, and visible phosphorescence makes this an outstanding display piece for both mineral collectors and UV enthusiasts.
Whether displayed under natural light or brought to life beneath UV illumination, this specimen offers incredible visual impact and is a true conversation piece.
