Description

This is a fine specimen of rare and sought, Blue Alkali Beryl from Deo Darrah at Khash & Kuran Wa Munjan District, Badakhshan, Afghanistan. Richly scattered over the matrix are several tabular, doubly terminated, lustrous and translucent, sky blue alkali-rich Beryl crystals, to 0,8 cm. In any case, this is one of the more rare small cabinet sized specimens. Usually you´ll find thumbnails or at most miniature sized pieces. And this is a super one as well with an almost pristine and aesthetic display side. These were originally thought to be Rosterite or Vorobyevite, but further analysis by Dr. Federico Pezzotta confirmed they are alkali-rich Beryls.
