Item Description

Beautiful crystals of bright, lustrous, electric fuschia colored crystals of Roselite on Calcite on matrix. Small grey-black crystals of what is most likely Goethite make for a really nice touch. Classic Roselite from Bou Azzer, and very attractive under magnification. The groups glow with color when backlit, and the largest cluster measures 6 mm. The best Roselites in the world are found at this locality, and their color is unmatched in the mineral world. From the worldwide thumbnail / miniature collection of Irv Brown.
