Item Description
Mineral specimens are rare from this obscure pegmatite, with only fluorapatite crystals shown in the MINDAT photo gallery. Classic, lustrous, translucent, light brown childrenite blades fill a 3.6 cm vug in the star muscovite and albite matrix. A very rare, rich and showy combination from this locale from the Josef Vajdak Collection.
