WOW! What a HUGE alpine apatite crystal! This is a sharp, tabular, single apatite crystal of pale yellowish colour. Calcites that have been etched away in the pocket add a funny surface structure on the top and back faces. The front side is smooth and shiny. Transparency is great in big portions, there are only a few little clouds inside. The bottom side is partially contacted and damaged, all other sides are in great condition. From a new find in 2013. A great addition to any alpine collection!

This is a group of 4 apatite crystals and small mica crystals, forming a wonderful floater! The special patterns on the surface were made by calcite crystals, that got dissolved in the pocket. Great aesthetics and no damage!
