Heavy Calcite and rock specimen shot through with veins of solid Silver. There are other silvery, metallic minerals such as Safflorite present too. Mined long ago, I got this one from a Canadian miner about 25 years ago. A fine and heavy Silver specimen from the historic Cobalt silver mining district. One side is saw cut revealing the metallic interior. Specimen weighs 6.0 ounces.
