Benz calcite with calico pyrite, often called the "Mercedes Star" formation, is a rare and highly sought-after mineral combination known for its striking geometric shape. The calcite naturally grows in a sharp, three-pointed star that resembles the Mercedes emblem, a formation that requires extremely precise conditions and is therefore uncommon to find intact. The surrounding calico pyrite adds metallic gold, bronze, and silver tones, creating a dramatic contrast against the creamy calcite star. These specimens glow hot pink under UV light. Metaphysically, this pairing blends clarity, grounding, and confidence: calcite supports focus and energetic cleansing, while pyrite brings protection, vitality, and abundance. Together, they create a unique specimen prized by collectors for both its rarity and its powerful, dynamic energy.
Crystals are naturally unique, which means no two pieces are exactly alike. The photos shown are examples of the available pieces. When you purchase a quantity of 1, you will receive one crystal. Size, colour, and shape may vary from the images provided.
If the option you select is a number (for example, 111), you will receive one crystal at that price point. Variations in colour and shape are expected, but quality and value are always consistent. It is very unlikely that staff can provide the exact crystal shown in the example photo. Please do not request this.
If you select an option that is a letter (for example, A), you will receive the exact crystal shown in the photo.
