Excellent specimen, recovered from the quarry in 2003. This quarry is now closed and exhausted; nothing remains. This specimen is of a much higher quality than usual for its species. These specimens are very difficult to obtain nowadays.
The crystals are very well defined, and the color is excellent. A true rarity!
I hope that you will be completely satisfied with the acquisition of any of my specimens.
