Summary

Description
English: Fluorapatite (Apatite-(CaF))
Locality: São Geraldo do Baixio, Doce valley, Minas Gerais, Brazil
Size: cabinet, 12.4 x 7 x 4.1 cm
7.6 x 5.5 x 5.2 cm. This specimen was featured in the exhibition "MINERAL DREAMS: Brazilian Gem Treasures" at the Munich show of 2010. It is one of the most bizarre apatite specimens I have come across, with carved-looking blue apatite crystals sitting one atop the other like stacked flying saucers. It is sharp, and the color and crystal forms are very impactful. The crystal atop is one inch across, and fairly translucent. I have not seen another specimen like this, to date, and was told it came out in about 2007.
