A complete, stout, gem floater crystal of Jeremejevite exhibiting a high glassy luster and excellent, rich blue-purple color as typified by the best crystals from this locality. This crystal has etched and resorbed crystal faces and terminations that reflect brightly. The Jeremejevite is doubly terminated displaying many micro crystal faces and the larger termination is graced by a single, tiny (less than 1mm), green, etched Fluorite crystal! A few of the prism faces are evident, but most are etched and barely recognizable. This is an exceptional thumbnail Jeremejevite crystal that has a lot more size and thickness than most. It also has a large gem nodule within that could cut a stone.
