Purple tetrahedron of Chambersite, a rare mineral found in salt formations in a small number of localities worldwide. It's a complete crystal with all four termination, though one termination is stepped and cavernous in areas but retains crystal faces all over. At 8mm it's good sized for the species. Translucent 'Amethyst' purple in color and collected by Fred Pough in 1970. Ex. Chuck Trantham collection.
