A fine specimen of gem augelite crystals to 12mm from the world-famous phosphate deposit of Rapid Creek, Yukon, Canada. The augelite is a rare mineral and some of the finest come from this locality. The crystals are sharp, highly lustrous, very well formed with a rhombohedral habit. They have from green to yellow color. They have a good transparency and gemminess. For references see the 1992 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 23, # 4. In very good condition – some small contacts.
Mesmerizing augelite!
