Fluorapatite

Clear Fluorapatites are very uncommon and this specimen is quite incomparable. There is a linearity in the shelf-like aggregations of super bright, super lustrous crystals forming aggregations close to wheat-sheaf. Isolated bundles and single acicular crystals allow this to reflect light in multiple directions. World class.
