Item Description

Columbite-(Fe) is rare from the famous pegmatites of the Shigar Valley. A very nifty 1.4 cm rosette of lustrous, blocky, black columbite-(Fe) crystals is jauntily perched on a sharp, translucent K-feldspar variety adularia crystal. A super accent is the gemmy, 6 mm, light blue aquamarine crystal. Choice, showy and rare combo material from the Herb Obodda dealer stock.
