Huanzala Mine, Huallanca district, Huanuco Department, Peru
66mm x 47mm x 38mm
minID: 1MD-FXQ
Dozens of tabular Apatite crystals are clustered on a contrasting crystallized Pyrite. These Apatites are a pale pink to violet color and vividly fluorescent. In choice condition, this specimen was collected in 2010 in what seemed to be a small but impressive find. The Huanzala Mine is famed for the incredible Pyrites and Fluorites that it has produced over the years. There have been a few small finds of Apatites however each discovery has been very different in terms of habit, color and form. From: Well-Arranged Molecules
