Item Description

An eye-catching and rare specimen of these attractive yellow Brucites from Killa Saifullah, Pakistan. These pieces are definitely different from most Brucites you'll see in terms of color and quality. They suddenly just showed up out of nowhere, and completely shocked mineral collectors for their fantastic intense yellow hue. Without a doubt, they are among the most colorful examples of the species ever found. This specimen features attractive, lustrous, translucent/gemmy, beautiful yellow colored groups of Brucite with a bit of matrix. The fantastic color combined with the internal gemminess and delightful radial form makes the piece notably eye-catching. Although there were many of these pieces on the market a few years ago, there seems to be less of them out there recently. Typically these kind of discoveries produce a limited number of pieces so don't miss out on picking up one if you want one.
