This is from a very small find in the Moroccan desert that has been abandoned for now due to the terrible conditions of collecting and the difficulty of removing the specimens. They never did appear in quantity in vugs, so they had to be found and excavated one at a time, and eventually, the miner decided it just wasn't worth the pain. Too bad, because they are gorgeous. Crystals on this specimen measure to over 2 cm on edge, and are complete, with natural contact on the back side where removed from matrix. No damage! 6.5 x 5 x 4.5 cm
