Item Description
A soft blue, 1.4 cm wide tabular crystal of Apatite-(CaF) is nestled in a bed of off-white color Albite crystals with minor greyish-silver Muscovite blades. The left side of the specimen features a predominant, sharp, euhedral, cream color Microcline crystal. Overall, there is very little damage (only a few tiny nicks), and the balance of the piece is certainly eye-catching.
