Fine large Aegerine crystal with associated Zircon and Orthoclase. Note that this is not from Mt. Malosa, but from nearby Mulanje Mountain which is producing a similar suite of minerals as Mt. Malosa. This one has everything going for it, firstly it is a stout crystal at 3.1 cm wide, much more impressive than the typical pencil crystals. It also has great luster and a fine tapering termination, and a bonus of yellow Zircons on two sides. No damage.
