Wonderful pair of Turritella herat-shaped and calsite Crystal ckuster on custom stands. Fossilized turritella refers to the preserved remains or traces of turritella shells from ancient geological time periods. These fossils are often found in sedimentary rocks and can provide valuable insights into past environments and ecosystems. Turritella is a genus of small sea snails known for their distinctive spiral-shaped shells. These shells are often fossilized and can be found in various parts of the world. The name "turritella" comes from the Latin word "turris," meaning tower, which refers to the tall, slender shape of the shell. Turritella shells are commonly used in jewelry and as decorative items due to their unique appearance. They feature beautiful patterns created by the remains of marine organisms that lived inside them millions of years ago. A calcite refers to a naturally formed or artificially shaped crystal of calcite that exhibits a cubic form. Calcite typically crystallizes in the trigonal crystal system, forming rhombohedral or scalenohedral crystals. However, under certain conditions, calcite can form cubic crystals. These cubic crystals are relatively rare compared to other forms of calcite. Calcites are characterized by their geometric shape, resembling with six square faces. The edges and corners are often well-defined, creating a symmetrical and aesthetically pleasing crystal. The formation of calcite can be influenced by factors such as temperature, pressure, and chemical composition of the surrounding environment. Calcite crystals are typically found in areas where there is enough space for crystal growth without interference from other minerals. Calcites are fascinating examples of the diversity of crystal forms that minerals can take, showcasing the natural beauty and symmetry inherent in crystalline structures.
