Item Description
The three striking doubly terminated fluorapatite crystals on this dramatic large plate of salmon-pink calcite look like schooling fish! The impressive large crystal is 10.9 cm long. The highly lustrous and glassy, yellow-green crystals are partially translucent. The typical layering of the sharp hexagonal crystals adds much pizzazz. Matrix specimens of this large size and quality are quite rare from this well-known locale. An exceptional example from the Robert Nowakowski Collection. Value??
