Overwhelming specimen of Lazulite with Siderite and Quartz from the famous phosphate deposits of Yukon. It comes from the collection of Pierre Leo Montreuil, Canada with a label. Lazulite is a rare magnesium aluminum phosphate and some of the finest come from this locality. The Lazulite crystals are sharp, highly glassy lustrous, very well formed, monoclinic, deep indigo blue color up to 7mm big. The crystals have gemmy areas with marvelous royal blue nuances. Gemmy brown Siderite crystals underline nicely the Lazulite. Some sharp colorless Quartz crystals are seen too. It displays on both sides. In very good condition – some small nicks and contacts. On acrylic base.
Exceptional!
