A great example of bi-collared calcite from the former Herja mine, in Maramures, Romania.
A beautiful specimen with combination of white calcite balls and grey to black calcite crystals due to boulangerite and jamesonite inclusions.
Macro pictures show  several spots with fibrous micro-crystals of boulangerite.
