Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Fluorite, Lepidolite
Locality: Erongo Mountain, Usakos and Omaruru Districts, Erongo Region, Namibia (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: 4.5 x 3 x 2.2 cm.
A sharp and dramatic pseudomorph of Fluorite after Mica. The first and only I have seen of this replacement but there it is - obvious in form and symmetry. The pseudomorph is very sharp, and has retained the elongated hexagonal book shape very well. At 4.5 cm long, it is impressive in both size and form. Remarkably, it also has a terrific reddish-purple translucency & gemminess and transmits light beautifully along the C-axis. A truly rare pseudomorph. Ex. Charlie Key.
