Arsenopyrite, Calcite and Pyrite Cluster, Peru

This listing is for the gorgeous cluster of scalenohedral (dogtooth) calcite crystals that formed from a pyrite and arsenopyrite matrix. The metallic minerals sparkle and shine and offer an amazing contrast of color. The base of pyrite has nice defined striations, and some have a natural rainbow iridescence to them. It was collected from the Huanzala Mine in Peru. Under short-wave ultraviolet light, the calcite crystals fluoresce a vibrant pink color. Very aesthetic crystal cluster that would be wonderful topic of discussion in any room! A magical addition to any collection!

Locality: Huanzala Mine in Bolognesi Province, Áncash, Peru
