Phenakite on matrix

This is a superb, very sharp, glassy, totally transparent Phenakite crystal from Burma with crisp edges and faces. It features a well-developed pyramidal termination. It is a full-sized and competitive-level thumbnail, and unusually it is NOT only a single crystal as it sits on a tiny shard of quartz and feldspar matrix that gives it a perch to stand on. It measures 2.4 cm in length and 0.9 cm across with a mass of 3.3 grams.
