Item Description
From what I can gather, there is only locality in the world for this material. I believe that this is a crystallized / crystalline piece of what is called "Tiffany Stone" from the Beryllium pit near Delta, Utah. The piece is from the collection of Harold Urish, whose label states that he obtained it fron Don Cuson on August 18, 2002. I'm used to seeing this material slabbed and polised, but this is an actual crystallized specimen, the first of which I have ever seen. If you're a collector of minerals from Utah, don't miss out on this rarity. Enjoy!
