Description

A wonderful assemblage of minerals with three completely gemmy, slightly orange-brown Topaz crystals up to 2 cm nicely scattered across the plate of matrix. The Topazes are slightly and preferentially etched on some of the terminal faces which makes them very interesting but from all the other faces they are transparent. There are big smoky Quartz crystals, bladed Albite, Mica and also a very nice white, columnar Orthoclase crystal sticking out. It's rare to see a big matrix specimen like this from this obscure locality nowadays.

Please watch the video to gain the best impression of the specimen!
