Description

A spectacular pink fluorapatite specimen with siderite and quartz crystals from this famous mine, which once yielded excellent specimens but are now virtually impossible to find on the global mineral market. The fluorapatite crystals from this deposit fluoresce under long-wave ultraviolet light, as can be seen in one of the photos.
