Dravite
specimen number:
4281024
location:
Morogoro, Tanzania
description:
A gemmy blocky crystal of dravite 1.5 cm in size on a rhyolite matrix. I am almost certain that this piece is a fake with ground-up material being used around the crystal to make it look real, implanting all on matrix. As a single crystal this would be quite nice. I've left it as is however.
Size: 7.5 x 7.0 x 5.0 cm (small-cabinet)
