About the Item

Product Information: Specimen Type: Afghanite crystals on Calcite Weight: 2065 grams Dimension: H: 20 x W: 9.8 x D: 9.5 cm Origin: Saar-e-Sang Mine, Badakhshan Province, Afghanistan Description: The rare elongated vivid blue Afghanite crystals on Calcite from Afghanistan present a mesmerizing spectacle of nature's artistry. Originating from the rugged and mineral-rich terrains of Afghanistan, these exceptional specimens showcase elongated Afghanite crystals that captivate the eye with their intense and vibrant blue hues. The elongated crystal formations add a unique dimension to the aesthetic appeal of the specimen, creating a striking contrast against the backdrop of the white Calcite matrix. The brilliant blue coloration is a result of the presence of sulfur in the crystal structure, a distinctive characteristic of Afghanite. The intricate interplay between the deep blue crystals and the surrounding Calcite highlights the geological forces that shaped these extraordinary formations over time.
