Item Description

Anatase is rare from this more obscure Pakistan locale, better known for excellent brookite and quartz specimens. Nine, sharp, splendent crystals are elegantly scattered on the quartz crystal-covered matrix. The crystals reach 5 mm tall. They have classic tetragonal form with sharp striations and some are partially translucent with honey-brown terminations! Ex Herb Obodda dealer stock. A fine representation of the species and uncommon locale.
