A matrix of dark brown calcite
scalenohedral crystals is nearly enrobed in sugary gypsum.
This portion of the gypsum displays spotty, neon green
fluorescence under shortwave UV. Gypsum curls (variety
ramshorn) sprout from the gypsum apex and forms loops,
reminiscent of solar plasma ejections. Previous labels
with a $100 price tag and a 1968 date. Very nice
condition.
