Transparent gem quality Apatite crystal rising out of a matrix of Calcite, limonite, chalcedony, and magnetite. Superb quality crystal for locality AND on matrix (most are loose single crystals). Crystal extends 1.5 out of matrix, but is at least a 2cm crystal that could further be revealed with more trimming. There are another 2 gem crystals attached to the lower left.
