minID: TV0-JCT
$175
A sharp, mirror-bright, pyramidal crystal of dark Anatase measuring 8 x 5 mm with a gemmy, yellowish tip and bluish flashes of color, is perched on Quartz heavily included with brownish clay(?). The base of the Anatase is matrix contacted, and the Anatase is free of damage. This was collected by Ed Swoboda from a small prospect that Ed labeled as Lavrinha, near Cuiaba, Brazil. It was held back by Ed Swoboda for nearly 20 years, when I purchased it in the early 1990s for my personal collection. These pieces are very rare.ex. Ed Swoboda specimen
