Description
Boracite is a relatively uncommon magnesium borate and this terrific 7 mm diameter equant and euhedral crystal is from its type locality at L'neburg in Lower Saxony, Germany. The pale bluish-green-grey crystal is set in a small matrix of mixed pink and white Gypsum from the exhumed caprock of an actively buoyant salt dome (salt diapir). The slowly rising salt dome forms a small hill close to the town of L'neburg. Collecting at this site is strictly prohibited, making this specimen all the more interesting.
Known provenanceKnowing where your specimen comes from and who owned it adds to its story and value. Good provenance helps prove it's authentic and preserves important details about its discovery.
