Fluorapatite

specimen number:
1471009

location:
Sauberg mine, Ehrenfriedersdorf, Saxony, Germany

description:
A superb old time classic from Germany with attractive tabular translucent lustrous fluorapatite crystals measuring to 1.2 cm in size on matrix. Very slight micro-chipping present, considering the age of this piece I think in good condition. Good examples of the species, especially in this color, from this old locality are becoming increasingly more difficult to find on the market today.
