Calcite geminata crystals on matrix from Il Castellaccio Mine, Morfasso, Emilia‑Romagna, Italy, with red fluorescence under UV.
Description from the seller
Excellent specimen of Calcite (Crystals on Matrix), from the Il Castellaccio mine, Morfasso, in Emilia-Romagna, completely natural and of excellent mineralogical value. The piece presents as an aggregate of crystals of great size, up to 7.9 cm, even geminated among themselves, with glossy surfaces and white-to-milk tones, and it shows a notable red fluorescence when exposed to UV lamp, a feature that enhances its charm and aesthetic rarity. These characteristics add aesthetic and mineralogical value to the piece.
This is an ideal specimen for mineralogical collections, display, and for those who appreciate the natural beauty of minerals, also in the field of crystal therapy and lithotherapy, according to the properties traditionally associated with the mineral species.
All minerals are 100% natural and untreated, except for very rare exceptions always indicated in the description. The photographs are taken with professional lighting to best enhance colors and details; however, slight variations in shade may occur depending on the device or ambient light.
Shipping is carried out via reliable express couriers selected for quick delivery (in many cases 1-2 working days in Europe), tracked and insured shipping and professional and safe packaging, as confirmed by customer reviews. Deliveries can also take place the day after payment depending on the destination.
It is possible to combine multiple purchases and receive them in a single shipment, even from auctions with different deadlines, simply by contacting us to arrange the consolidation. For important pieces, direct delivery by appointment to your home or at major European fairs is also available.
