Gorgeous eye candy combo specimen of gem pink Spinel crystals with gemmy Pargasite crystals from Luc Yen District, Vietnam. Pargasite is a rare complex silicate species of the Amphibole Group. Luc Yen Pargasites are among the best known examples of this species. The crystals are lustrous with pleasing apple-green color. The vivid octahedral crystals of rich pink Spinel up to 3mm are lustrous and gem. They have good shape. The white marble base gives very strong contrast. The green and pink combination is very attractive. The bottom is sawed. In very good condition - some small contacts. On acrylic base.

Fabulous!
