Item Description

These are some of the best Bolivian Augelite crystals to hit the mineral market in a long time. This piece features a few fine, sharp, lustrous, colorless, gemmy crystals of Augelite measuring 6 mm sitting atop small Quartz crystals on matrix. The quality of the main Augelite crystal is very good and it is a good sized crystal from this mine. This rare phosphate mineral is not seen often in any format from any locality, and for a Bolivian Augelite, this is a good piece.
