description: Glassy mostly gemmy in color zone tabular crystals of fluorapatite to 2.3 cm in size forming an aesthetic cluster with glassy gemmy crystals of quartz to 2.5 cm in length. Minor muscovite present as well. A floater that is completely crystallized naturally all around, very slight micro-chipping present to one of the quartz crystal terminations, this hardly seen without the aid of magnification.
