A SUPERB lepidolite specimen by worldwide standards, with rich metallic blades of a lavender color, to 4 cm. These are well developed crystals...the species is usually just rock matrix to better species, but here it IS the focus! This is in particular a killer piece for County, not just good for the species, and just off the charts in style for this particular mine. I am told it was a very small find found by phil osborn in the 1970s. This is the larger of two pieces Larson was able to acquire. Ex. Chris Korpi collection
