Fluoreszierendes Spinell-Kristallexemplar auf weißer Matrix – Badakhshan, Afghanistan

Offered here is a rare and attractive natural Spinel crystal specimen from the Badakhshan mines of Afghanistan, weighing 128 grams and measuring approximately 67 × 46 × 41 mm.
The specimen features a contrasting white matrix hosting natural purple Spinel crystals. Two prominent Spinel crystals are visible on one side of the matrix, both showing natural crystal form and terminations. The crystals have not been repaired or artificially modified, preserving their natural appearance.
A particularly interesting feature of this specimen is its fluorescence under UV light, where the Spinel displays a distinct red fluorescence. The UV photographs included in the gallery demonstrate this optical response.
The specimen is also self-standing, making it especially suitable for display in a mineral cabinet, while the combination of purple Spinel, white matrix, and red UV fluorescence gives it strong visual contrast.
