Fluorapatite with Sphalerite and Siderite
 

WWE16CD1: Notable for several reasons. Due to its pedigree, since it belonged to the Natural History Museum of Los Ángeles and was later in the Raúl Sanabria collection, and for the Fluorapatite / Sphalerite association, which is rare in Panasqueira, and for its perfection, without the slightest defect or damage.
An excellent piece, which carries with it a lot of added value.
