Item Description

Beautiful teal-green color and striking horizonal layering highlight this glassy, gemmy/translucent, doubly terminated hexagonal fluorapatite crystal from this well-known locale. The bit of attached orange calcite is a nice contrast and typical association. Complete all-around and nearly pristine. The bit of bruising on the back side is out-of-sight. Excellent highly representative material.
