My collection has very few European specimens but of the few German specimens that I have, I am fascinated by the silver on arsenic from the Pöhla/Erzgebirge region.

Sankt Andreasberg (Harz, Lower Saxony) seems to me a great locality for special habits of calcite.
Here a mat of slightly elongated pseudo-hexagonal crystals of calcite, called Kanonenspat .
