Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Beryl
Locality: Nyet, Shigar Valley, Skardu District, Baltistan, Northern Areas, Pakistan (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: small cabinet, 8.2 x 5 x 4.9 cm
Aquamarine/Heliodor
This amazing specimen seems to be an aquamarine overgrowing a heliodor core, with interesting green feathery inclusions that I have no clue what we are looking at. Depending on lighting and background, it is either a really blue aqua or a neon blue aqua...in either case, no matter how you look at it, the color is truly phenomenal and frankly the best color i have seen in a Paki aqua in years. I am told that it was a freak piece, mined alone only several months before the show. It is completely crysatllized around all sides. The top is terminated, though with an interesting ridged texture to it like you more often see in heliodor than in aquamarine. Despite its fatness, it is remarkably pristine save only one ding on a back edge. I just think its a fantastic, colorful, and really interesting specimen. As well, the qay gem pegmatite prices are going up these days, its just a good large aqua at a fair price, anyhow. Weight on this hefty crystal is 352 grams 8.2 x 5 x 4.9 cm
