An amazing Cobaltoan Calcite specimen also known as Aphrodite Stone or Salrose has a natural sparkling vibrant pink colour due to Cobalt ions that are present in the crystal structure. Due to the colouring, it is one of the most sought after Calcites by collectors
First discovered in Tuscany, Italy, this uncommon mineral has since been only found in a few other locations including Argentina, Germany, Mexico, Morocco, Spain, US and the DRC (Congo). It is even more unusual to find it forming with Malachite and since Malachite is a favourite, only a few of these pieces were available to be obtained.
