Exceptional specimen featuring a huge Pezzottaite crystal! Smaller Pezzottaite crystals appear to the center right and lower right making this quite the impressive cluster! The main crystal is very glassy and gemmy with a deep reddish-pink color. It measures 2 cm in size from top to bottom! From Ambatovita, south of Mandrosonoro, Madagascar. Measures 2.6 cm by 2.1 cm on matrix. Ex. Kevin Ward Collection (This specimen was taken from our display at the Tucson 2006 Show. Please e-mail if you see it anywhere. There is a reward for its return)
