location:
Sapo mine, Ferruginha, Conselheiro Pena, Doce valley, Minas Gerais, Brazil
description: Beautiful glassy lustrous slightly translucent deep green tabular crystals of fluorapatite measuring to 1.8 cm in size on both sides of this 4.0 x 3.3 x 2.0 cm albite crystal matrix. This is in great condition all around. Can be displayed from several angles, I like the first view that I show in the first photo. The bigger crystals however on the bottom when displayed this way. Either way, this is a very good fluorapatite specimen. Shipping weight: 0.17 pounds.
