Item Description
From a discovery in April of 2014. Beautiful isolated crystals of bright, gemmy, sharp, lustrous, electric fuschia colored crystals of Roselite (unusually Mg-rich) on contrasting pearly Dolomite matrix. Some of the crystals are nearly water clear! This is GREAT quality for the species, despite the fact that the crystals are on the smaller side. From Jordi Fabre, who had the material analyzed confirming that it is indeed Mg-rich! Very cool.
