Tucson, Arizona, USAA single blocky crystal of Bustamite stands upright at the front of this very large miniature specimen from Broken Hill, New South Wales, Australia. The somewhat rounded, terminated Bustamite crystal measures 5 cm tall and stands nicely for display. It displays a lovely varied pink colour with a vitreous lustre and is mostly translucent with some gemmy areas. The matrix comprises smaller Bustamite crystals intergrown within creamy veins of Calcite, and black sub- metallic areas of possible Sphalerite. Well-crystallized Bustamite is rare worldwide - Broken Hill being the main source. However, most larger crystals are detached from matrix making this a fine display piece with scientific value too.
