There are three small pieces each maybe 1mm and less and each piece has great abundance of tiny white rice-shaped crystals of extremely rare Parafransoletite. This was really a one-time find from the 1980's when the Tip Top was mined for beryllium and the the rare beryllium phosphates were found. The red is Montgomeryite. You can buy these and sell two.

Small cabinet specimen basically homely looking but packed with billions and blillions of tiny lath-shaped slightly blue Paravauxite crystals 1mm and less. Ok - there are only a few million crystals (or less). I stopped counting at a hundred.

For Philipsburgite, a rather rare mineral, this piece is excellent or superb. It sparkles nicely as the the little green rosettes reflect the light nicely all about the Quartz crystals in which they were deposited.
