Item Description
Albite specimens without the association of orthoclase, microcline or quartz are RARE from the Organ Mountains. This is an aesthetically intergrown cluster of blocky, pearlescent, creamy, compound crystals from a very obscure locale. The crystallized oxide blebs are a nice accent and contrast. Choice and rare albite from Chris Cowan New Mexico Collection. A MUST for the species or locality collector.
