Covering a thin crust of matrix are a few glassy and gemmy, colorless albite crystals, to 2.2 cm in length.The largest crystal, and at least one other appear to be twinned. This specimen is bright and sparkling, so lustrous you would think it was topaz but for the crystal habit. It is a superb miniature from this unique, small find.
