Gem quality Mica species are very difficult to obtain from any locality. The gem Phlogopites from Afghanistan that came on the market a few years ago are some of the best quality crystals for the species that I have seen. This particular crystal is a very sharp, highly lustrous, deep honey color, GEM quality crystal measuring 1.3 cm on white marble matrix. Ex. Richard Kosnar Collection.
