BERYLLONITE
Specimen brl-1


$ 150.00
Dims: 0.82x0.64x0.34" (2.10x1.63x0.87cm)
Wt: 17.1ct (3.42g)
Telirio mine, Linopolis, Minas Gerais, Brazil
This is a cluster of Beryllonite crystals, a rare berylium phosphate mineral. The crystals are colorless and essentially transparent, although they have a rather rough surface pattern that obscures that transparency. About half of the specimen has a slightly dirty appearance, and is even more difficult to see through. There are a number of tiny tunnels passing through the specimen. While the specimen is clearly crystalline, said crystals are distorted in form, and I cannot describe their shape, other than distorted and complex.
