Mango Calcite Tower – 3.5″ Polished Golden Banded Stone

Geological Overview

Sourced from the mineral-rich highlands of Pakistan, Mango Calcite ($CaCO_3$) is a stunning variety of Banded Calcite prized for its warm, fruity hues. These colors are derived from trace iron and manganese inclusions trapped within the crystal structure. Each tower features distinct horizontal bedding, recording the prehistoric mineral fluctuations of the Balochistan hydrothermal veins.

Aesthetic Appeal

Each tower radiates a soft, sunny energy with colors ranging from pale peach to a rich, ripe-mango gold. Masterfully polished to a high-gloss finish, the stone exhibits a beautiful "honeyed" translucency that glows when placed near light. Its vertical obelisk form emphasizes the organic, undulating mineral bands that make every piece unique.

Metaphysical Properties

Associated with the Solar Plexus and Sacral Chakras, Mango Calcite is the ultimate stone for joy, optimism, and self-worth. It is traditionally used to clear emotional blockages and foster a warm, welcoming energy within the home. Its vibrant color is believed to nourish the creative spirit and encourage a playful, confident approach to life's challenges.

Rarity & Collectibility

Graded AA (Premium Collector Grade), these towers are hand-selected for their exceptional color saturation and structural integrity. While golden calcite is found in several locales, the specific "Mango" banding and high-clarity translucency of these Pakistani specimens make them highly sought after by discerning collectors.

Collector’s & Display Notes

• Measurements: Approximately 3.5" tall (8.9 cm).
• Weight: Approximately 210g.
• Selection: One tower will be intuitively selected for you.
• Origin: Balochistan, Pakistan.
• Care: Calcite is relatively soft (Mohs 3). Clean only with a soft, dry cloth; avoid acidic cleaners or long-term water exposure to preserve the vitreous polish.

Condition & Authenticity

Transparency Matters: This is a 100% natural specimen with no dyes or enhancements. As with all natural carbonates, minor internal veils or tiny surface pits are authentic markers of the stone's genuine geological formation.
