Hematite-Coated Dogtooth Calcite with Pyrite & Diamond Calcite

£69.00
Description

This is a striking, sculptural specimen featuring tall, sharply defined dogtooth calcite formations rising from a sparkling base.

The deep red hematite coating creates strong contrast against the bright, reflective calcite, while scattered pyrite inclusions add warmth and subtle flashes of gold.

The structure is bold and architectural, with multiple points extending outward to create depth and movement from every angle.

A true statement piece - ideal for collectors or as a focal point within a space.
Geological Specifications

Mineral: Dogtooth Calcite (Scalenohedral Calcite) with Hematite inclusions, Pyrite and Diamond Calcite
Origin: Daye, China

This specimen features prominent dogtooth calcite crystals, forming elongated, sharply defined scalenohedral points.

The surface is naturally coated with hematite (iron oxide), creating its rich red-brown colouring and textured, velvety appearance.

Between the larger formations, areas of highly reflective “diamond calcite” - a trade name for particularly clear or sparkling calcite growth - catch the light and add contrast.

Small inclusions of pyrite are distributed throughout the piece, introducing subtle metallic highlights.

This combination forms in mineral-rich hydrothermal environments, where multiple stages of crystal growth and mineral deposition create complex, layered structures.

Each piece is entirely unique, with natural variation in formation, coating and crystal clarity.
Metaphysical Properties

This combination is often associated with:

• Grounding and stability
• Strength and resilience
• Protection and energetic boundaries
• Clarity and focus

With pyrite present:

• Confidence and personal power
• Abundance and manifestation
• Motivation and drive

Calcite is also linked to:

• Energy amplification
• Clearing stagnant energy
• Supporting growth and transformation

Together, this piece offers a balance of grounding strength and energetic clarity.

As always, metaphysical properties are offered as spiritual support and not as medical advice.
