Lustrous, pink, tabular plates of Fluorapatite showing good crystal forms with discoidal Siderite. Nice piece. There are 4 or 5 crystals together, stacked in parallel growth with one set at near right angles to the other. The pink is a good solid pink, the luster is very good and there is no damage. The contrast between the Siderite and the Fluorapatite is pleasant and I haven't yet seen this combination from this mine. There are sprinkles of Pyrrhotite with maybe one short Cubanite.
