Heavy vein section of Silver and metallic minerals in pink Calcite. 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. Loaded specimen that looks like it's about 50% metal. The Calcite is actually cracked in 2 pieces in one place but held together by the internal Silver. Specimen weighs 10.2 ounces.
