Serandite is one of the iconic species for which the remarkably diverse mineralogical treasure house of Mont Saint-Hilaire, Québec, Canada is renowned. This is in part because of its striking pink colour, but also its crystal size in relation to many of the other unusual species at Mont Saint-Hilaire, many of which are microscopic. At 10.9 cm in length, this is not only a large crystal spray of Serandite, but a world-class one too, with this elongated bladed habit being much rarer than the more blocky form. Salmon-pink and largely opaque, the crystals do not reach the dizzy heights of the very best deep flesh-pink translucent crystals, but are spectacular for their size and the addition of a white, 1.3 cm diameter 'ball' of Analcime near the tip of the spray adds significantly to its aesthetic appeal. It is from the superb systematic collection assembled by the brothers Martin and Michael Günther (1951-2007 & 1956-2021).
