Orthoclase, quartz

Orthoclase Baveno twin with quartz. Overall size: 58 mm x 40 mm. Orthoclase crystal size: 30 mm tall, 11 mm wide. Weight: 59 g. Undamaged. Purchased in 1974 from Joan Montal for 90 euro cents.

It might actually be microcline instead of orhoclase, but it is difficult to tell.

Almandine

Rhombododecahedral {110} almandine crystals on micacite. Overall size: 95 mm x 45 mm. Main crystal size: 57 mm across. Weight: 284 g. I suspect the crystal faces might have been somewhat polished or treated since they are too neat and smooth.

Timmelsjoch, Bozen, Südtirol.

Calcite

Floater group of brown translucent to transparent calcite crystals with some breccia matrix attached. A classic of this Indiana locality. Note the uncommon rhombododecahedral habit, I believe {110} faces. It seems a garnet but I can swear it is not. Overall size: 70 mm x 40 mm x 35 mm. Major crystal size: 35 mm across. Ex Rick Russell collection.

Berry Materials Corp quarry, North Vernon Plant, NE edge of North Vernon, Jennings Co., Indiana, USA.

Gorgeous calcites, Carles. Can you post a side view? It's beautiful in this orientation, but looks like there are other crystals "in the back"....
