Item Description
A classic, colorful and showy two-sided specimen from this renowned locale. Highly lustrous, partially translucent, rich salmon-pink serandite crystals with glassy, colorless leifite crystals. The front is nicely accented with a little vug of leifite crystals and a nifty 1.4 cm long aegirine needle at the base. The back has radial sprays of leifite crystals. The front, back and sides are mostly contacted, but this remains a showy and highly representative example of the combination species and famous locale. Comes with a label from a respected Quebec dealer.
