Astrophyllite
Marchenko Peak, Kukisvumchorr Mt, Khibiny Massif, Murmansk Oblast, Russia
A beautiful, three-dimensional, 2.5 cm radial spray of golden-brown acicular Astrophyllite is associated with a 1.4 cm inverted, fan-like spray of Astrophyllite on a small amount of matrix. Very aesthetic example of a mineral characteristically found embedded in the matrix.
Personal collection of Sharon Cisneros.
