Item Description
A very attractive seafoam-blue cluster of intergrown Brucite crystals from Wessels. There are about four adjoining clusters of bladed Brucite, each about 1 cm across, that combine to form the overall specimen. The color is good, as is the translucense. This is a very good blue Brucite, that if it were from Pennsylvania would cost considerably more. For some reason these South African ones are always underpriced. As Brucites go, this is quite attractive.
