7hhcens ((CALCITE, ARAGONITE STALACTITE)), $10 MINIMUM BID, Beck Street Limestone Quarries, North Salt Lake, Salt Lake County, Utah, 13 x 3 x 3 cm, Large Cabinet | |
This was collected and brought to me by a local collector two years ago. He found it exploring a small cave in a local Limestone gravel quarry. The cave is probably gone now by the on going quarry operation. It is composed of a terminated stalactite that is bumpy and also has a hole through the base. A bit ugly but hard to come by since all the major caves which are in Utah County, like Timpanogos are protected national monuments with collecting not allowed. |
