The calcite are in two generations, the first is clear larger modified crystals of calcite which have been deposited over by fine grained milky calcite. The calcite has been deposited onto a small crystal cluster of hematite on the host matrix. The hematite crystals are in an unusual form with high metallic luster faces and out standing striations. The main hematite crystal measures 1.4cm across.
