Showy Aragonites with crystals intertwined with each other forming beautiful "pineapples".
Aragonite is one of the crystalline forms of calcium carbonate, along with calcite and vaterite. It can be found in the form of stalactites, and also in the shell of almost all mollusks and in the skeleton of corals.
