Analcime rosa del Buffaure from Buffaure, Dolomites, Alto Adige, Italy; a Classico alpino specimen with a weight of 115 g and dimensions 7 cm high, 8 cm wide and 1 cm deep.
Description from the seller
The analcime from Buffaure, with its large pink crystals, represents a rarity in the world of mineral collecting. Buffaure, located in Val di Fassa within the Italian Dolomites, has been a well-known site among mineral collectors for decades due to the quality and beauty of the crystals discovered there. Among these, pink analcime has always attracted great interest because of its delicate color and the considerable size the crystals can reach.
As often happens with many historic mineral extraction sites, Buffaure is now closed to access for mineral research. This has made specimens of pink analcime a true rarity on the current market, with an increasingly limited supply and a growing demand, especially from experienced collectors and scientific institutions.
