Aquamarine crystals in situ

Photo Copyright © William C. van Laer, 1987  - This image is copyrighted. Unauthorized reproduction prohibited.
A photo taken of a granite outcrop with pegmatitic surface exposed and several gemmy blue aquamarine crystals. This was on the upper surface of a roche montonee that had a nice vug on the trailing edge of the outcrop that yielded numerous specimens of bertrandite. I coolected one small but exceptional aquamarine crystal from a small vug exposed on this outcrop. Photo taken in 1987 in the Devil's Den.
