Locality type: Mine Classification Species: Calcite Formula: CaCO3 Comments: "Calcite is a major vein constituent, although less common than quartz and dolomite. It occurs in the same crystal habit as dolomite and is often mistaken for the latter mineral. The typical habit is that of thin flattened rhombohedra showing growth marks. Calcite of secondary origin occurs as stalactites or 'fish tails' hanging from the roof or sides of adits."
