AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Crocidolite is a form of riebeckite which is easily apparent when you see the specimens densely-packed hair-like fibers. This variety is often called "blue asbestos" due to its deep blue-black color. This is an old-time piece from mining in South Africa.
