A glassy crystal of yellow Amblygonite with green Apatite from Brazil. Amblygonite is a rare lithium-aluminum phosphate species that is not commonly seen in fine display quality crystals. This crystal is 1.5cm with white Albite crystals and an attached 6mm Apatite crystal. These are not commonly seen and I bought the entire pocket that was available at this year's Tucson show. This was the only one with an Apatite crystal.
