Carbonate-Fluorapatite on Quartz
Sapo Mine, Goiabera, Minas Gerais, Brazil
Large Cabinet, 6.4 x 3.5 x 3.4 cm
SOLD
A riveting piece with extra color and transparency, as the best specimens for color were associated with quartz for some reason. It is a fine miniature, for display and as an example of the species. An odd quartz seam runs through the piece, splitting the apatite crystal vein...more interesting, probably, in person
