Pink Manganoan (Coin) Calcite on Chalcopyrite with Chlorite, Pyrite & Crysanthemum Clear Quartz Crystal Cluster. 
 
Step into the realm of mineral magnificence with this rare and museum-worthy specimen of Pink Manganoan Calcite, delicately stacked in a mesmerizing pagoda-style tower formation. Its distinctive blush-pink colour comes from manganese inclusions, while the layered growths rise with architectural elegance, earning it the nickname “tower” or “pagoda” calcite among collectors.
 
These second-generation rhombohedral calcite crystals, up to 20 mm in size, are perched upon a bed of earlier generation grey-white scalenohedral calcite, forming a visually harmonious contrast of structure and tone.
 
Set within a shimmering matrix of Chalcopyrite, this piece is further enriched with:
• Golden flecks of Pyrite & fluorite
• Fine needle-like Quartz crystals, radiating with a soft sheen
• Miniature cubic Pyrite crystals, hidden like mineral Easter eggs throughout the surface
• A soft, velvety green Chlorite mat graces one side, adding rich organic texture
 
Under UV light, the Manganoan Calcite tower and rosettes ignite with a vivid crimson fluorescence, highlighting their rarity and exceptional purity.
