#1 Hydrothermal Breccia with Analcime
/Calcite/Silver+Gold Ores 12x8x8 (Esmeralda County, Nevada)
#2 Fluorite Stalagtite/Scalenohedral Calcite 10x5x3 (Esmeralda County, Nevada)
#3 Silicified Wood with Chalcedonic Silica 5x5x4 (Esmeralda County, Nevada)
#4 Analcime in Calcite 3x3x2 (Esmeralda County, Nevada)
#5 High Angle Fault Ore Vein Sample
comprised of chalcedonic silica, multiple brecciations, pyrite/marcasite,
petroleum inclusions and daughter minerals.
6x3x2 (Esmeralda County, Nevada)
#6 Mordenite in Etched Calcite
The mordenite resulted in our higher than normal hardness readings for most of the calcite found at the deposit.

Chabazite/Thomsonite/Analcime/Calcite #1 15x6x6cm (Esmeralda County, Nevada)
The large 1 inch crystal is not quartz. It has a hardness between 4 and 5
but has been identified as high in CaO and CO2 content and some minor PO2
content by Excalibur SEM. Xray diffraction has determined that the exact
mineral is indeed calcite although it is still puzzling that the hardness is
so high. There is a possibility that there are inclusions causing the higher
than normal hardness.
