Beryl var: Aquamarine with Muscovite and Albite

Item Description

A classic Aquamarine crystal group from the famed Chumar Bakhoor locality, outside of the Shigar Valley, but certainly one of the premier localities for gem Aquas in Pakistan. A predominant, sharp, lustrous, gemmy, hexagonal crystal is the focus of the specimen, and is accompanied by a few smaller crystals of equal quality. Minor Muscovite and Albite can be seen on the back of the piece. There is a separation mark on the front of the specimen where another Aqua crystal once grew, but the piece is in good shape overall.
