Outstanding cluster of large purple Apatite crystals attached to a Quartz crystal, with minor amounts of Siderite at the base. The purple color is the most desirable of Panasquiera Apatite and is not common. The crystals are both good sized, reaching 1.8 x 1.4cm, and highly lustrous with transparent areas. A stunner!
