Item Description

Chumar Bakhoor is one of the best-known pegmatite minerals localities in Pakistan producing gorgeous Aquamarines, Fluorites and pink Fluorapatites. This piece is a nice display specimen featuring a wonderfully isolated, textbook, sharp, lustrous, beautiful soft pink colored, tabular hexagonal crystal of Fluorapatite measuring 1.1 cm sitting proudly atop a group of bladed, silvery-grey colored Muscovite matrix. The piece displays beautifully. I cannot find any damage on the front Apatite, but the back is contacted where it separated from the pocket wall.
