Apatite (Fluorapatite)
Golconda Pegmatite district, Govenador Valadares
Minas Gerais, Brazil
4 x 2.6 x 1.7 CM (miniature)
price: $260
Spring 2019
A cluster of stacked, flat, parallel position Apatite crystals in a sculptural arrangement. The color is a light pink to violet hue depending on lighting. In quite good condition all around this is crystalized on all sides so is a "floater". One tiny area was perhaps at one time a point of attachment but it has recrystallized so is no longer evident. This has an especially intense yellow fluorescence that is brighter than any I can recall. A choice and affordable small miniature.
