This deep blue apatite is a very nice sample from the classic brazilian locality. Its best quality is the perfect crystalization,added to its gemmy transparence: most of these crystals are badly shaped and with few transparent spots. The size is cm 3,5 x 1,8 x 1,5. On the back also a little of matrix. Sarah Sudcowsky collection.
