Not the most beautiful fluorapatite on earth, but what an unusual locality specimen for the Yaogangxian, known for floods of all sorts of minerals but NOT for fluorapatites. This one is actually nicer in person, a lot less "rough" looking, doubly-terminated with two fine flat terminations, and complete and sharp all around. Rare.
