This piece has a matching number Chester Lemanski label. I find it curious that the calcites are modified elongated rhombohedron with some manganese (hot orange under LW). Some may be twinned or simply intergrown. The matrix appears to be highly grossular in content, which, again, is curious for the Mex Tex. Chester was a rarities collector, so perhaps these elements appealed to him. Frankly, I have never seen the likes and question the locality. Great looking piece.
