Item Description
These are some of the best Augelite crystals from Bolivia to hit the mineral market in a long time. This piece features several fine, sharp, lustrous, colorless, gemmy crystals of Augelite measuring up to 4 mm associated with a few blocky white crystals of Barite plus minor Quartz and Pyrite on matrix. The quality of the Augelite crystals is very good and they are certainly decent sized for this mine. This rare phosphate mineral is not seen often in any format from any locality on the market.
