Marvelous and quite uncommon specimen of Fluorapatite crystals grown on Muscovite from the famous Panasqueira mine. Displays tabular hexagonal crystals to 10mm with purple color and some colorless cores. They are with matt luster, translucent and gemmy. Muscovite forms the base and it displays nice dark rosettes. One accent is small yellow Chalcopyrites. For references see the 2014 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 45, # 1. In excellent condition – some small nicks. On acrylic base.
Beautiful Fluorapatite!
