Microcline (var: Amazonite) on Albite (var: Cleavelandite) Sphalerite Specimen # BOL711B123This miniature sized specimen features a few sharp, well formed, rich blue green colored prismatic Amazonite crystals with unusually etched altered reddish brown sections on the terminations.

The terminations on the Amazonite crystals are rare in my experience and make for a lovely color contrast. Collected by my maternal grandfather, Dave Bergman in
