Recently, the various gem tracts around Luc Yen have produced some impressive Spinel crystals. These are easily some of the largest individual Spinel crystals to come out of any locality. This specimen is good sized, lustrous, translucent/gemmy, sharp octahedral crystal group of Spinel. The color is a lovely deep pink hue, and to find crystals this size that pass light is rare in my experience from Luc Yen.
