Item Description

Brucite is known from many worldwide localities in a lot of colors, but these new specimens from Pakistan are among the most attractive specimens we've seen in many years. First off, the yellow color is incredibly rare for the species, and has never been seen from any locality before these specimens from Pakistan arrived on the market. Here we have a nice small cabinet specimen with a pearly, translucent group of attractive, lustrous, nice yellow colored Brucite sitting aesthetically on a layer of matrix. Although the Brucite is not GEM quality, it's still shows a wonderful color when backlit. These are fairly new on the market, but it appears that the locality is quickly winding down as very few new specimens seem to be out there. Don't miss out on picking up one if you want one, as these kind of discoveries typically produce small numbers of specimens for a short time and then they're gone.
