Description
双尖水晶上长着几粒宝石般的菱铁矿,两三个面上长满了绿色小颗的光彩石,仔细观察还能发现水晶里零星包裹着一些天蓝石,非常特别的一块标本。 ------ A doubly terminated quartz crystal is adorned with several gem-like siderite crystals. Two or three of its faces are covered with small, lustrous green augelite crystals. Upon closer inspection, you can also find sporadic inclusions of sky-blue lazulite within the quartz, making this a truly unique specimen. ------ This milky white, doubly-terminated quartz crystal contains micro inclusions of lazulite and is covered in sparkling micro augelite crystals, along with some siderite crystals. It originates from the famous phosphate occurrence at Rapid Creek in the Yukon. We don't see much sizeable quartz coming from this locality, an excellent specimen! -- D Joyce Minerals
