It is unusual to see crystals of the rare yttrium phosphate, xenotime, but I must say I have never seen one with rutile inclusions. A 2.0 cm in length, cognac colored, gemmy and lustrous xenotime crystal with rutile inclusions sits majestically on a matrix of smaller xenotime crystals. Truly extraordinary! The crystal is 3-dimensional and fully terminated all around! this is a truly oustanding, unique thumbnail or small miniature specimen
