Stunning, sharp yellow Amblygonite crystal attached to the front of an Albite crystal. Amblygonite is a rare lithium-aluminum phosphate species that is not commonly seen in fine display quality crystals. This crystal is complete all around and 1.2cm wide. Translucent with transparent gem areas and with high glassy luster. Interestingly, all the faces have bright glassy luster, except the right side which has matte luster and attached small hemispheres of an unidentified mineral. A superb, undamaged toenail Amblygonite!
