Item Description

Pakistan has produced a good range of colors for Fluorapatite from several localities. I think I have seen virtually every color of Apatite from Pakistan, including arguably the finest pink crystals in the world. Here we have a wonderful small cabinet sized specimen from Pakistan featuring a pair of sharp, pink, tabular, hexagonal, crystals aesthetically sitting on white Albite. The largest crystal measures 7 mm across. The piece displays nicely, and is in great shape overall. A classic pink Apatite from Pakistan. As you can see the piece glows a brilliant yellow under SW UV light.
