95 gm, translucent, couldn't scratch with hardened steel, changes color with back ground, from black, blue to yellow, orange and brown. Have golden inclusions which looks black in darkness. Diamond like lusture in the fructures. 2/3 fructures, apparently one cleavage, not sure, parting seen. Fructures are uneven, not like glass. Color dark brown or honey.
