About the Item
Fluorapatite (bi-color) with Cleavelandite, Dara-e-Pech pegmatite field, Dara-e-Pech District, Kunar, Afghanistan
6 cm tall x 7 cm wide
Fluorapatite is found in several colors, purple being the most sought after. This specimen from a remote and mountainous region of Afghanistan consists of a group of intergrown crystals of tabular form with a rich indigo purple exterior shading into a golden yellow center and white cleavelandite attached to the back. To find an example that is a true defined bicolor like this piece is extremely rare. This fluorapatite was found in 2021 in a small pocket with less than a dozen additional crystals. It is the largest and finest from the discovery.
