Item Description
Fluellite is a rare hydrated aluminum phosphate found in pegmatites! Pearlescent fluellite plates in curved banded groupings and in dense clusters totally cover the matrix on this extremely rich and old specimen from a very uncommon and extinct Czech locale. Very rare from this locality. The Vajdak label has a calculated 1920 date on it. Try to find another. Not pretty to look at, but rich, rare and highly desirable species and locality material.
