AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Extraordinary and very interesting sample from Madagascar. On a 32 mm crystal of Fluorliddicoatite colored from wine red to yellow-green is implanted a 15 mm black Schorlite crystal and small crystals of Fenacite up to 5 mm. A very rare association, a very interesting and particular specimen, photographed under intense light.
The sample is photographed under intense professional light to highlight details and color at best. Any slight variations in color tones depend on the device settings used and/or exposure to ambient or artificial light of different color temperatures.

Seller's Story
We have been collectors since 1972, present as exhibitors at the main mineral exhibitions in Italy and some European ones (Sainte-Marie-Aux-Mines, Monaco, etc.), where you can find us to get to know us in person, exchange opinions, talk about our beloved minerals and, should the auctions end close to an exhibition, deliver your samples directly.
All proposed minerals, unless otherwise specified, are photographed using a strong light source, to better show the colors and details of the sample.
If you buy multiple minerals in the same auction, we will ship them together and you will only pay the higher shipping costs.
