Two generations of Calcite coexist in the specimen, partially covering a group of transparent, lustrous and intense yellow Fluorite crystals. The later of these Calcite generations forms poorly defined white crystals, while the first forms a coating of translucent, bright, scalenohedral crystals, colored reddish by Hematite inclusions.
