AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Striking aragonite specimen from Morocco.

It is a natural stalactitic formation, very dramatic, with numerous tubular formations and concretions; the surface is coated with micro-crystallizations that give a delicate sheen with tones ranging from white to warm beige.

In the lower part (as can be seen from a photo) the area where the cavity ceiling is attached is clearly recognizable: here there is the presence of goethite, with brown-reddish and darker coloration.

A specimen with strong aesthetic presence and a highly decorative three-dimensional morphology.

Provenance: Morocco
Weight: 3.24 kg
Dimensions: 25 x 18 x 15 cm
