Mined from: Linwood Mine, Buffalo, Scott County, Iowa

Description: A bold and sculptural calcite specimen from Iowa, U.S.A., featuring a dramatic arrangement of well-formed, blocky crystals rising from a rugged, dark matrix. This piece stands out for its pronounced geometry—thick, sharply defined calcite points with a frosted, matte surface contrasted by smaller, glassy crystals nestled between them.

The larger crystals display a soft milky-white to pale gray tone with subtle translucency, while the underlying druzy layer adds sparkle and depth. Fine mineral inclusions dust the surfaces, giving the specimen an earthy, natural character and enhancing its visual texture. The contrast between the luminous calcite and the darker matrix creates a striking, high-relief appearance.

Sourced from Iowa’s renowned calcite-producing region, this one-of-a-kind specimen is ideal for collectors who appreciate strong crystal form and natural contrast. Its architectural presence makes it an eye-catching display piece from any angle.
