Calcite (Var: Cobalt-bearing Calcite) Locality: Solita Mine, Pallars Sobirà, Lleida, Catalonia, Spain Dimensions: 5.1 x 3.2 x 2.5 cm
An exceptional and highly aesthetic specimen of cobaltoan-calcite displaying vivid shades of raspberry-pink to lavender-pink coloration. The specimen has been naturally sectioned to reveal a remarkable cross-section of rhythmic growth banding, with delicate concentric layers tracing successive episodes of mineral deposition. The richly saturated cobalt-bearing calcite is translucent throughout, allowing light to penetrate the specimen and illuminate the intricate internal structure.
The contrasting matrix provides an attractive frame for the colorful calcite, while the exposed growth surfaces exhibit a silky appearance. The specimen offers visual interest from every angle, with both the polished-looking natural cross-section and the matrix-supported reverse side contributing to its display appeal.
