Description
Anhydrite on Calcite – Naica, Chihuahua, Mexico (Cabinet Specimen)
Overview
A striking cabinet specimen featuring pale blue Anhydrite crystals intergrown with soft yellow Calcite. Collected from the famed Naica mining district in Chihuahua, Mexico, this piece shows excellent contrast, structure and display presence.
The Anhydrite forms sharp, stacked blades up to 7 cm long, positioned beside glassy Calcite crystals reaching approximately 6 cm. The main crystal faces sit on the same display plane, giving the specimen a balanced and natural orientation in a cabinet.
A visually impressive specimen in very good condition and offered at strong value for collectors.
