Unique Natural Calcite Healing Sphere - Height: 100 mm - Width: 100 mm- 1480 g - (1)

Calcite is a widely distributed carbonate mineral notable for its varied crystal forms and colors. This unique calcite sphere represents a polished and shaped specimen emphasizing the mineral's optical and structural qualities. Calcite is known for its rhombohedral cleavage and typically appears in transparent to opaque forms with a vitreous to pearly luster. The sphere shape is popular in mineral collecting and ornamental uses, providing a smooth surface that highlights the calcite's internal features and any coloration or banding present. Though commonly found worldwide, well-formed and aesthetically pleasing calcite spheres are considered special for collectors or as decorative items. Calcite is also significant scientifically, as it reacts with weak acids and serves as a primary component in sedimentary rocks like limestone.
