Afghanite
Laduar Medam, Sar-e-Sang District, Koksha Valley, Khash and Kuran Wa Mun
Nuristan, Afghanistan
5 x 4 CM (miniature)
price: $165


A sharp, deep blue terminated Afghanite sits on the top of a calcite matrix (FL). The Afghanite crystal is 2 CM long and 1.6 CM wide, it is broken in the back but the presenting side is undamaged. There are two other broken crystal fragments in the matrix. A nice example and a well-presented termination of this once uncommon mineral.
