JFD36AN7: Dolomite (variety Fe-bearing dolomite) with Calcite
I had seen many pieces from this locality, but never found one that completely satisfied me. In 2013, Ester Pulido from 'Tesoros Naturales' had this piece and, given how 'fresh' the Fe-bearing Dolomite looked, and the beautiful edging of the white Calcite, I really liked it and bought it from her. In fact I still think that it is very beautiful for what is usually seen in this locality.

JFD224AP8: Dolomite (variety Fe-bearing dolomite) with Pyrite
Lots of history in this piece. It came from the Folch collection (duplicates) labeled as “Ankerite”, a name commonly ascribed in the past to more or less iron-bearing dolomites, since it was difficult then to analyze them adequately. At one time I sold it to Francesco S. Stoppani and it resided in his collection until Francesco decided to sell it, and on repurchasing it I decided to repatriate it because I had always liked it a lot and it had seemed quite unique to me. Its only drawback is that we cannot know with certainty in which mine it was found, because Folch just labeled it “La Unión”, and the experts in that mining district who have seen the specimen cannot say for sure exactly which mine it came from. Typical classic piece, with a lot of history behind it and prettier than usual.

Specimen size: 11.8 × 9.2 × 4.8 cm = 4.65” × 3.62” × 1.89”
