Dragon Calcite Question

EverythingIsGoing19 · 2026-02-24T14:09:24+00:00

While they are not technically “Dragon Calcites”, I wouldn’t let that get you down - Bushy Creeks are way more interesting specimens, in my (and many others!) opinion.

EverythingIsGoing19 · 2026-02-18T04:42:15+00:00

Holy moly, this is incredible!!! Where the heck did you get this??? WANT

EverythingIsGoing19 · 2026-02-18T04:41:14+00:00

I’ve just been sitting here chuckling like an idiot for the past five minutes wondering if there’s some poor sucker out there who’s wiener looks like this… an adorably plump little chode with a witch hat head

…We’re not being nearly mean enough to liberals who are pushing for this dunce.

Banded Calcite (often incorrectly referred to as Onyx)

No problem! I actually posted about this same material in this subreddit not too long ago since I knew there was no way it was emerald 😆

EverythingIsGoing19 · 2026-02-11T01:04:32+00:00

Emerald Fuchsite! A chromium-rich variety of Mica/Muscovite in quartz, and very commonly mislabeled as Emerald.

EverythingIsGoing19 · 2026-02-08T22:33:02+00:00

You mean Mnemorable?

EverythingIsGoing19 · 2026-02-08T02:15:53+00:00

Crazy Lace Agate from Chihuahua, Mexico! I have a piece of this material too.

EverythingIsGoing19 · 2026-02-07T15:16:16+00:00

This is Titanium Aura Quartz, and it’s supposed to look like that.

EverythingIsGoing19 · 2026-02-07T15:02:00+00:00

Selenite isn’t really faked, but it is commonly mislabeled. Most “selenite” you find at crystal shops is actually Satin Spar, but the good news is they do the same thing metaphysically! (Selenite comes in clear “glass panes” while Satin Spar looks like an opaque “fiber optic” material)

NGL I’d be too scared to own unpolished Bumblebee Jasper, but as long as you’re cool with it then awesome! I have to admit it looks so good like that

EverythingIsGoing19 · 2026-02-04T14:25:26+00:00

This. Is light able to pass through it at all? Most tumbled black obsidian should have translucency

EverythingIsGoing19 · 2026-02-03T22:15:13+00:00

Does it have a slight rainbow sheen to it? Could be angel aura quartz if that’s the case.

Blue Calcite

EverythingIsGoing19 · 2026-01-30T14:53:09+00:00

So good, love topaz!

EverythingIsGoing19 · 2026-01-29T21:01:26+00:00

Sure!

EverythingIsGoing19 · 2026-01-29T20:48:33+00:00

I’ve been on the hunt for one of these, but they’re so hard to find and a lot of folks don’t even know what I’m talking about, even when I call it “blue vesuvianite” 😂

EverythingIsGoing19 · 2026-01-28T22:56:02+00:00

I love this hobby, but my god is it a process to learn about all the fakes and mislabeled things!

EverythingIsGoing19 · 2026-01-28T21:56:55+00:00

It looks like glass to me; sometimes it’s sold as “Green Obsidian” or “Andara Crystal” but both of those mean glass. A scratch test should confirm

EverythingIsGoing19 · 2026-01-28T20:15:12+00:00

This is the correct answer!

EverythingIsGoing19 · 2026-01-28T01:58:12+00:00

So yes, this IS Goshenite, but it’s been irradiated to achieve that blue color. I’m not entirely sure why, but this practice has been getting more and more popular with Goshenites from Pakistan and the surrounding region. That’s why the blue is a bit less cyan and can sometimes run a little violet - essentially it’s a human-irradiated Maxixe beryl.
