Locality: Aghbar Mine (Arhbar Mine), Aghbar, Bou Azzer District, Tazenakht, Ouarzazate Province, Souss-Massa-Draâ Region, Morocco
This is among the best we have seen, with excellent color and brilliance. To these great features we can add that it has excellent crystallization, with the lenticular crystals of Roselite-beta stacked on the matrix and surrounded by light pink Calcite. We will give the purchaser a copy of the analysis of the Roselite-beta, which we did because of its unusual appearance.
Arhbar, Bou-Azzer area Morocco
Found in 2004
