Large, vuggy specimen of the rare phosphate Senegalite from the type locality for the species. Open vugs reach 6cm wide and are fully lined with Senegalite. This is the most aesthetic Senegalite I have ever seen with large sized vugs and good color highlighted against the blue Turquoise underneath. Good vugs on both sides of specimen with very little matrix, you get really not much more than the crystal lined vugs. From the Alain Carion collection.
