Item Description

Mineral specimens of ANY variety are RARE from this very obscure pegmatite mica mine, which also produced amazonite. Two, gemmy, terminated light green aquamarine crystals with striated and partially clay-included faces proudly stand out in the front of the oxided-coated feldspar matrix. The large crystal is 3.6 cm. Sections of many other aquas and quartz crystals are noted in the matrix. RARE material from the Matioli Collection.
