Detailed Description

This is a gorgeous sculptural-looking specimen of intense pink cobaltoan calcite. It is comprised of thousands of tiny crystals stacked together in mounds, and so it sparkles brightly under the lights. Stands perfectly for display as photographed, no damage. A wonderful specimen with great colour.

About These Agoudal Mine Specimens

The Agoudal Mine has been a famous source of many excellent mineral specimens for years. In particular, it has been known for beautiful cobaltoan calcite. The locality has included underground and surface workings. I understand from Tomasz Prazkier that all workings at the Agoudal Mine have now ceased. This is sad news for mineral collectors, as the Agoudal Mine has produced some of the finest cobaltoan calcites and roselites ever found anywhere.
