Description

Over the last several years, some top "Alpine"-type Anatase and Brookite specimens have been trickling out of Pakistan. The Anatase crystals from this locality rival some of the best Norwegian crystals for the top luster, deep inky-blue color and incredible sharpness. This piece features a beautiful 7 mm, razor sharp, highly lustrous, deep inky-blue color, doubly terminated tetragonal prism of Anatase sitting atop a Quartz and Albite matrix.
