Beryl (Var: Aquamarine) : Be3Al2Si6O18 | |

Gilgit, Gilgit District, Northern Areas, Pakistan Superb, water-clear gem crystal , as i think is conveyed in the pics quite nicely. Note also the perfect, complexly bevelled termination!

Gilgit, Gilgit District, Northern Areas, Pakistan 3.7 x 2.2 x 1.5 cm. A fantastic mini of aqua on matrix! The aquamarine is PRISTINE, super-gemmy, complete and undamaged all around and with a perfect termination.

Beryl (Var: Aquamarine) : Be3Al2Si6O18 | |

Gilgit, Gilgit District, Northern Areas, Pakistan Let me say right off that this specimen does have one clean repair right at the base, not visible unless you are really looking for it. This being said, it is a very large, stunning matrix aqua specimen that just about any collector at any level would be proud of. The crystal measures 8.5 cm (!!) from its base to the PERFECT termination, and is ... |
