New Zealand Calcite Stone Necklace Ref 0011

A truly rare and collectible piece of New Zealand natural history — a Calcite Stone Necklace crafted from rock personally fossicked on the West Coast of New Zealand.

What makes this pendant especially special is its provenance: the fossicking area where this stone was found is no longer accessible to the public, and fossicking there is no longer permitted. This is a piece of New Zealand's geological heritage that can never be replicated.

About New Zealand Calcite

Calcite is an abundant and fascinating mineral found throughout New Zealand, occurring in sedimentary, metamorphic, and hydrothermal environments across the country. It is perhaps most famously associated with the iconic Moeraki Boulders on the South Island's Moeraki Point — large, spherical septarian concretions that have captivated visitors for generations.

Notable New Zealand calcite localities include:

• Moeraki Point, South Island — home to the famous spherical Moeraki Boulders
• Aranga Quarry, Northland — a significant calcite deposit in the North Island
• Golden Cross Mine, Waikato — a hydrothermal environment rich in calcite formations
• West Coast — where this very stone was found, in an area now closed to fossicking
