Fluorapatite with Pyrite
specimen number:
80311438
location:
Panasqueira mine, Covilha, Castelo Branco, Portugal
description:
A beautiful purple glassy partly gemmy crystal grouping of fluorapatite with minor pyrite. I think in very good condition. When viewing this from the backside it appears that the purple color is over growing a previous green color in the fluorapatite.
