Item Description
An attractive and somewhat hard to find crystal of Titanite (Sphene) from this cool REE locality in Pakistan. This specimen is one of the few Titanites I've had to offer from Zagi Mt recently. It has a classic "wedge"-shaped form with sharp faces, good luster and decent gemminess. To top it off, the color is a rich golden hue, which is not common for the species. Good condition overall, with a slight amount of "roughness". Certainly a good representative Titanite specimen from this contemporary classic locality in Pakistan.
