Gem Clusters! What is hidden inside?

Amazing clusters of gems found by dissolving calcium seams in acid. When to check out a gem site as a potential claim for my local rock and mineral club. I wanted to see if this site would be good for local rock hounds to go rock hunting. This site has Calcite seams that hide quartz and other gems inside completely protected and in 100% perfect condition shielded by the calcium. Once soaked in Muriatic Acid (HCl) the calcium completely goes away leaving the perfect crystal clusters behind. The perfect gemstones make excellent specimen displays.
