Two transparent yellow Apatite crystals set in a matrix of translucent Chalcedony and magnetite. The main crystal is 2.5cm tall, well terminated, and fully transparent gem quality. Although loose single crystals are commonplace, and even matrix pieces are relatively abundant, truely special pieces like this are not.
