Description:Malayaite is the rare calcium, tin silicate analogue of titanite (calcium, titanium silicate). Lustrous, dark creamy-yellow, intergrown, malayaite crystals are nicely set as stringers and pods in the vein of off-white wollastonite. This showy, rich and rare combination specimen is from the less well-known Meldon Mine of Devon, England. This shallow, old-time tin prospect was last worked in the1920s. Ex Richard Barstow Collection. Bright white fluorescence.
