is covered with lustrous, distinctly curved dolomite
crystals, with individual crystals reaching about 7 mm.
Peppered around the dolomite are tiny chalcopyrite
crystals some of which are brassy to iridescent, while
others are somewhat green and corroded. Also present are
clusters of snow-white, parallel barite blades, with the
largest barite aggregate measuring 1.6 cm. Finally peaking
out from under all this are a few patches of golden-yellow
fluorite, which fluoresces white under both longwave and
shortwave UV. No damage to the dolomite-rich display face.
Sits perfectly for display on its naturally flat base.
