A superb specimen of gem fluorapatite crystals from the famous Panasqueira mine, Portugal. It displays sharp tabular, hexagonal fluorapatite crystals to 16mm. They are with a rich green color. The luster is glassy and the crystals are transparent and gem. Small needle crystals of an unidentified mineral and quartz are seen too. For references see the 2014 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 45, # 1. In excellent condition – some side contacts. On acrylic base.

Tremendous!
