Phlogopite, Fluorapatite

This sculptural specimen features a prominent, elongated hexagonal terminated phlogopite crystal at the top, vying for attention against a dense cluster of lustrous, translucent green fluorapatite crystals. The matrix base is a bed of phlogopite, while the back of the specimen is almost entirely composed of fluorapatite. This magnificent piece originates from the Liscombe Deposit in Ontario, Canada, and exemplifies an exceptional 360-degree Grenville pegmatite specimen. The interplay between the well-formed phlogopite and the vibrant fluorapatite makes this a particularly outstanding sample, showcasing the mineralogical diversity and aesthetic appeal of the Liscombe Deposit.
