A very good and attractive matrix specimen of fluorapatite from the famed Foote mine in North Carolina! Dark purple-gray, moderately lustrous, short hexagonal barrels of fluorapatite adorn the contrasting off-white drusy quartz matrix. There is good separation between the crystal clusters that enhance the aesthetics of the piece. Ex. John Lindell collection with label.
