SOLD
Interesting and attractive cluster of Apatites coated with Pyrite, all on Quartz. The Apatites are a lovely grey-blue in color and have good luster. They are partially gemmy, but what is so unique are the Pyrites that coat two of the Apatites faces, particularly the largest 2 cm crystal. Ex. Steve Smale Collection.
