Item Description

A remarkable and rare beryl crystal from the Fano Mine of Riverside County. The stout, textbook hexagonal crystal is very glassy and lustrous. Striking gemmy areas highlight the mottled, layered, light green to brown prism, which is also partially opaque. Complete all-around and essentially pristine. A contacted termination edge has very little actual damage. The pegmatite is well-known for excellent schorl specimens and has furnished some of Southern California's best aquamarine specimens. Probably from 1980s and 1990s collecting efforts. Ex Bob Reynolds Collection, a well-known fossil and mineral expert and former curator of the San Bernardino County Museum. He passed away in 2020. Mass is 223 grams. An impressive and excellent beryl crystal from the locale. Much better in person. The glassiness, luster and gemmy areas made photography difficult.
