Needless to say, the Amethyst and Calcite combo from Daye Mine is famous in the world.  This supreme quality Daye specimen features gemmy and glassy Hematite capped Amethyst crystals with striking, highly lustrous Scalenohedral Calcite on matrix.  The largest Amethyst is measuring 4cm in length, outstanding!  The Calcite crystals are partially tinted by Hematite giving them a blush of pinkish red coloration.  They fluoresce a bright pink under longwave UV lighting 365 nm.  Two terminated Quartz crystal points with vitreous lustre partially red Hematitie tinted perched on the matrix, ascending beauty and rarity.  Excavated in December 2019 from a unique one-time find in the Daye Copper Mine, this is the last piece left.  Specimen from this locale, of this color and mineral combinations is extremely rare and desirable in the market.  Comes with a high quality copper-wired display stand.
