Item Description
Well-defined single crystal that is actually three generations of Bastnasite. The first generation was a gemmy, very glassy crystal that has been coated by second and third generations of opaque Bastnasite. With the inner layer visible, particularly along the edges, the crystal reminds one of the famous 'sandwhich' Wulfenites from Los Lamentos. An interesting thumbnail with style valued $400
