A specimen of YELLOW lepidolite, from an exciting new find in Brazil! The translucent crystals on these specimens, which of course are mica and thus very thin sheets, are packed so densely that the specimens look to be almost a solid translucent yellow mineral, except for the thin crystal edges at the surface that show that what you are really looking at are the edges of thousands of tightly packed sheety crystals. Beautiful stuff!
