Green Calcite



A very common and widespread mineral with highly variable forms and colours. Calcite is best recognized by its relatively low Mohs hardness (3) and its high reactivity with even weak acids, such as vinegar, plus its prominent cleavage in most varieties. 
This piece has been treated with a gloss since calcite is quite soft and breaks up quite easily
The glossing also brings out the natural color
