The top coloration for Panasqueira fluorapatite crystals is purple, and they are among world class examples for the species. Try to find a killer thumbnail, though! This specimen fills that spot. This specimen features two, lustrous and translucent light purple crystal, to 2.7 cm in length, forming a large thumbnail sized specimen. They are incredibly lustrous and sharp all around. Gemmy to translucent, it leaps out in a case of thumbnails for both the color and luster, as well as the stark columnar form without other geometric distractions. This elongated crystal style, showing length on the C-axis, is much more rare than the typical tabular crystals you normally see from the mine. A very choice competition-worthy piece! ex.
