Item Description

A few years ago, there was a find of superb "Alpine-type" quality Brookite and Anatase specimens from the Kharan District of Pakistan. The Anatase specimens found at this locality are some of the finest quality pieces to be found in the modern era of minerals. This particular specimen features a few sharp, very lustrous, doubly-terminated, well formed tetragonal crystals of Anatase up to 8 mm with a nice blue color that can be seen when viewed in strong lighting. This is a fine quality Anatase specimen from any locality, on par with the classic specimens from Norway with regard to quality and crystal size. Ex Herb Obodda dealer stock.
