The colour and clarity is spectacular and is a really nice example.  This specimen comes with a FREE , 4 point, luxury mineral stand and can be displayed in either upright or portrait format.   We have included a 1cm square yellow cube in the photographs, to give you an idea of how large this fabulous item is. 

A LITTLE MORE INFORMATION ON CALCITE vs ARAGONITE: You may think of carbon as an element that on Earth is found mainly in living things (that is, in organic matter) or in the atmosphere as carbon dioxide. Both of those geochemical reservoirs are important, of course, but the vast majority of carbon is locked up in carbonate minerals. These are led by calcium carbonate, which takes two mineral forms named calcite and aragonite.

Aragonite and calcite have the same chemical formula, CaCO3, but their atoms are stacked in different configurations. That is, they are polymorphs. (Another example is the trio of kyanite, andalusite, and sillimanite.) Aragonite has an orthorhombic structure and calcite a trigonal structure. Our gallery of carbonate minerals covers the basics of both minerals from the rockhound's viewpoint: how to identify them, where they're found, some of their peculiarities.

Calcite is more stable in general than aragonite, although as temperatures and pressures change one of the two minerals may convert to the other. At surface conditions, aragonite spontaneously turns into calcite over geologic time, but at higher pressures aragonite, the denser of the two, is the preferred structure. High temperatures work in calcite's favour. At surface pressure, aragonite can't endure temperatures above around 400°C for long.

METAPHYSICAL AND HEALING PROPERTIES OF CALCITE / ARAGONITE: Calcite and aragonite work to clear and activate all of the chakras, improving the flow of energy throughout the subtle bodies. Meditation with Calcite can help to improve one's perception of the physical world and of the self, creating a shift in those who experience predominantly negative emotions. One can use Calcite to clear away negative energy, and to amplify positive energy, and specifically, to help remove fear-based emotions, bringing more optimism into one's experience.

Calcite is helpful for those in need of clarity, and those who are learning about Law of Attraction and manifestation. Like Clear Quartz, Calcite can amplify intent, and can be programmed for a specific purpose. Calcite can help one to see past errors and ways to correct them for benefit in the future. By clearing away stagnant energy blockages, Calcite can bring higher energies into the chakras, encouraging spiritual development.

  We NEVER sell altered, embellished, dyed or artificially  enhanced specimens, such as screaming fluorescent agates, 'day glow' dyed amethysts  or 'aura' vapour coated crystals.
