Well terminated, untwinned single Diaspore crystal. Transparent with a golden body color, vertical striations and flat, lustrous termination faces. Complete all around and in excellent condition. Note that Diaspore is dichroic, changing between golden and purple tones in different lighting. This crystal appears more golden colored to my eyes, but the camera is picking up some of the purple tones.
