Summary

Description
English: Calcite
Locality: Rattlesnake Butte, Jackson County, South Dakota, USA (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: 15.7 x 14.4 x 12.7 cm.
Gary Hansen mined these amazingly sculptural "sand calcites" (calcites heavily included with desert sand) in South Dakota in the 1960s - and they have not been seen since. Though we have featured some really nice ones, this one is in a class by itself due to its prodigious size - making it truly look like an expensive piece of modern art - only NATURAL! Like the others, it is a floater, so there are no ugly areas, and you can display it from almost any direction with great visual impact!
