Item Description
Bear Lake fluorapatites are a Canadian classic and this is an impressive and huge, partially doubly-terminated crystal. This sharp, classic, thick, prismatic, partially translucent, colorful greenish-brown crystal with orangey highlights has fabulous luster and a striking sloped termination. The lower end has nifty multiple terminations and is partially contacted. Complete all-around. The piece has one repair, just above the middle, which is common for such a large piece. An important large fluorapatite from this locale. Mass is 5.5 pounds or 2.5 kilos. Ex Robert Nowakowski Collection.
