Description

Vanadium rich Corundum on Grafite matrix. The purple crystal has an impressive size for tha location. It is self collected in 1978 when the quarry was producing grafite for the industry. In nower days crystals with that size are no longer possible to find. I honestly can say this is an excellent piece you  probably won't find on the market anymore.
