Item Description

A beautiful group of the fine quality and newly discovered Brucites from Pakistan. This rounded, lustrous, translucent, attractive yellow group is composed of spherical aggregates that formed free of matrix. For Brucite this is a rare color, and with such wonderful internal gemminess when backlit, they are truly eye-catching. Originally, these were thought to be from Kharan, but we had a source tell us they're actually from Killa Saifullah District, so it's possible that the Brucites were brought to market in Kharan and errantly thought to be from there. Nonetheless, these are very attractive and worthwhile to add to your collection since there seems to be a limited amount on the market and typically these kind of discoveries don't produce a lot of material, so get them while you can.
