Carrollite with Calcite,
Kamoya South II Mine,
Kamoya, Kambove District, Katanga, DR of the Congo
6.1 cm x 5.6 cm x 3.5 cm
Here is a really nice specimen of this uncommon mineral.
It consists of a mass of calcite crystals that fluoresce a nice reddish pink color.
Within the calcite, are some really nice silvery metallic crystals of Carrolite, two that are very well formed up to 1 cm.
There are also a few Carrollite crystals that did not completely form.
On the back of the calcite is some chalcopyrite.
Overall a nice and affordable example of this not so common sulfide mineral.
