A beautiful crystal cluster specimen of the Betafite series of the Pyrochlore Supergroup (formerly known as Betafite of Hogarth, 1977.) with a large Apatite crystal going through it. This piece comes from the famous Silver Crater Mine. Though this locale is still accessible, good specimens are becoming extremely hard to find here, with large cluster specimens like this being even rarer.
Approx. specimen size: 60mm x 35mm x 27mm
