Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Cafarsite
Locality: Wanni glacier - Scherbadung Mt. (Cervandone Mt.) area, Kriegalp Valley (Chriegalp Valley), Binn Valley, Wallis (Valais), Switzerland (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: miniature, 4.0 x 2.0 x 1.2 cm
Cafarsite
This exceptionally sharp miniature could easily be trimmed to a kille rthumbnail. Either way, it features a robust, uusually equant and 3-dimensional modified cafarsite crystal of 1.4 cm in size, perched atop smaller crystals. This is a very choice example of the species from one of its most important locales (the type locality, in fact). Collected a few years ago by my friend the intrepid strahler, collector, and dealer Gerd Wiedenbeck of Germany. (Type Locality)
