- Calcite
- The Calcite (often referred to as Aragonite in this material...i was just told that the analysis had been made now) stalactites of Carter County are renowned for their form and color. This particular specimen is a superb example not only for the fact that is has the classic deep red- orange color and good translucence, but that the main stalactite is completely intact. Others are gone, but this one has survived beautifully, and that is unusual. You can see quite clearly how good the aesthetics are. This specimen came from me years ago and was part of the old Miller calcite collection. The piece was undoubtedly collected by Bud Ehrle in the late 70's as they all came from him.
