Summary

Description
English: Calcite
Locality: Copper Queen Mine (Halero Mine), Queen Hill, Bisbee, Warren District, Mule Mts, Cochise County, Arizona, USA (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: 6.4 x 6.4 x 4.4 cm.
Going way back miners at the classic Bisbee locality preserved specimens of the huge variety of calcite found within the mines, as they had no commercial value, but the miners recognized their beauty and variety. This specimen came out of the collection of Dave Stoudt, who had quite a broad array of Bisbee calcites in his collection. It consists of a series of very thin sheets of matrix stacked upright, and around them have formed these silky white calcite crystals of very complex form. Ex. Stoudt Collection.
