Cobaltoan Calcite Tynebottom Mine, North and Western Region (Cumberland), Cumbria, England 7.35cm x 3.14cm x 3.1cm Ex. University of Delaware Mineralogical Museum

Description/Interesting Notes: A rare, old time example of cobaltoan calcite from England!!! These old time examples of cobaltoan calcite from the Tynebottom Mine are VERY rare and highly sought after by collectors!!! This specimen hosts a rich showing of translucent, pink cobaltoan calcite on matrix!!! The cobaltoan calcite has rich pink color with marked translucence and a unique, velveteen luster!!! The few specimens I have seen of this rare material are always present as crusts without matrix - this is the ONLY matrix specimen I have ever seen!!! This specimen is in fantastic condition and displays magnificently in person!!! This specimen retains an old Gregory, Bottley, & Co. label and is from the University of Delaware Mineralogical Museum as well!!! RARE material - you do not want to miss out on this rare opportunity!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
