Item Description
Within the last few years, the Killa Saifullah area in Pakistan has produced some of the most beautiful specimens of Brucite ever seen. While Brucite is a found in variety of different hues, most specimens are a bit on the dull side, so when these brilliant yellow pieces started to come out, it really caught the attention of collectors. The intense yellow color is exceptionally rare for the species, and the saturation of these groups combined with the fact that they have formed attractive specimens on matrix makes them incredibly desirable for species collectors and display collectors alike. This attractive small cabinet specimen hosts semi-spherical, lustrous, translucent, glowing yellow groups of Brucite with very minor attached. The yellow color is very strong, and if you've seen these pieces in person, you know how vibrant they can be. If you collect minerals of Pakistan, you can't afford to miss out on this really eye-catching material. Yellow is not terribly common in the mineral world, and a piece with this intense yellow hue is nearly impossible to find in any species. There might be many of these on the market right now, but they will dry up quicker than you realize, so be sure to pick up one while they're available. Priced in the inventory at $800.
