SummaryEdit

Description
English: Beryl (Var.: Emerald), Calcite
Locality: Coscuez Mine (Cosquez Mine), Muzo, Vasquez-Yacopí Mining District, Boyacá Department, Colombia (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: 7.1 x 4.6 x 4.2 cm.
This is a very dramatic piece with a central emerald flanked by "wings" of crystallized calcite. The 2.8-cm-tall emerald is of top color and glassy lustre, and is very large for such a specimen. It is entirely transparent throughout, though with internal veils as usual in a specimen. You can see right through it to the underlying matrix!
