A very attractive, sea foam-blue cluster of brucite crystals, rising in a vertical cluster and completely formed all around 360 degrees. This is a very dramatic blue brucite, that if it were from Pennsylvania would cost an arm and a leg. But, these South African ones are always underpriced for some reason though I think they are among the most beautiful minerals here. This is an exceptionally good miniature sized specimen of the species because it is colorful, aesthetic, and shows crystal structure.
