Brucite on Andradite (Ref: 16.1-326)
N Chwaning Mine, Kalahari Fields, Kuruman, Northern Cape Province, South Africa
78mm x 64mm x 32mm
minID: 5W7-ALP
A pearly-blue ball of Brucite crystals sits neatly on top of a contrasting Andradite matrix. An attractive setting for this usually unimpressive mineral, this is quite esthetic and in fine condition. The matrix is well-crystallized on all sides, so it is a floater and the Garnets are especially lustrous on the back side. This would be a really nice specimen of Andradite on its own, but with the Brucite this is especially choice.From: Well-Arranged Molecules
