Item Description

These new Brucites are some of the most exciting finds from any world locality in the last few years. Their superb quality combined with excellent gemminess and the very rare electric yellow color has made them quite popular among collectors. This piece features very attractive rounded, lustrous, translucent, gorgeous yellow colored crystals groups of Brucite free of matrix. As I mentioned, this is a rare color for Brucite, and with such wonderful internal gemminess when backlit, it's a very worthwhile specimen. Originally, these were thought to be from Kharan, but we had a source tell us they're actually from Killa Saifullah District, so it's possible that the Brucites were brought to market in Kharan and errantly thought to be from there. Nonetheless, these are very attractive and worthwhile to add to your collection since there seems to be a limited amount on the market and typically these kind of discoveries don't produce a lot of material, so get them while you can.
