Red Pagoda Calcite Specimen | Daye Mine, Hubei Province, China
Pagoda calcite is also sometimes called “mushroom” or “pokerchip” calcite for its stepladder-like growths along the sides. Hematite inclusions give it its distinct orangey red colour and it is a recent find from the Daye Mine in Hubei Province of China. Definitely one of the most interestingly shaped pieces of calcite that we’ve ever had.
