A perfect, and perfectly beautiful, crystal of yellow-green gem fluorapatite with the form and color typical for this Canadian locality. It measures 4 cm, and as you can see, it has been beautifully prepped so that it is exposed all around, including the two terminations. These are stabilized with shellac, it needs to be said. Gemmy and bright as can be!
