This natural red calcite boulder from Mexico features a rough, unpolished finish with tones ranging from deep brick red to orange-red, accented by visible crystalline cleavage planes. Offered as a single piece in size grade #5, each specimen measures approximately 6 to 12 inches across and weighs between 4 kg and 6.9 kg. Because these are natural mineral chunks, individual pieces vary in exact shape, colouration, and texture.
Calcite is a calcium carbonate mineral recognized for its distinct rhombohedral cleavage and a softness rated at 3 on the Mohs hardness scale.
Due to its low hardness, display this boulder on a sturdy surface and dust gently with a soft cloth, keeping it away from acidic cleaners or harsh chemicals.
