Marvelous bright and gem blue Lazulite crystals from a new find in Rapid Creek - the famous phosphate deposits of Yukon. Actually this specimen comes from a brand new locality in Rapid Creek area – Mt Seafoam. Lazulite is a rare magnesium aluminum phosphate and some of the finest come from this locality. Lazulite crystals are sharp, highly lustrous, very well formed, monoclinic, deep indigo blue to sky blue color. The most amazing aspect is the gemminess of the crystals – they are transparent with marvelous and saturated blue colors. Some transparent white Quartz crystals add a nice accent. In good condition – some small damages. On acrylic base.

Beauty!
