Anglesite

TF90V7: Irregular aggregate of translucent and bright prismatic crystals with very well defined faces and edges, a slightly pink color and on matrix. We note that Anglesite, in well developed crystals, is a quite rare species at this locality. The sample is from the Natural History Museum in London, which obtained it from the H.S. Gordon collection from which it passed to the Earl L. Calvert collection. We’ll send the original label from the Mineral Department, British Museum, to the buyer.

Elbaite spheres on matrix

From Myanmar come these new, very interesting Elbaites (Rubellites) that are different from those in previous finds. The Elbaites are in the form of spheres or arborescent sprays on white Calcite or Quartz matrix, so the contrast between the white and red makes them very attractive. From this important find we have selected the specimens that have, in our opinion, the best esthetics, brilliance and definition of form. In all cases the Elbaite is aerial on the matrix. As many of the specimens from this find had some form of coating of some sort of Kaolin, we avoided them and went for the ones that have a ‘fresh’ look.
For you information, as no one could tell us if any analysis had been done of this find, we decided to have the analyzed. They are Elbaite, and while they do contain some Calcium in their composition it is not enough for them to be Liddicoatite. So they are definitely Elbaite.

Elbaite (Rubellite) with Quartz and Schorl

TQ37V7: Polycrystalline aggregates (“mushroom” shaped) of Elbaite (rubellite) with very well developed curvatures on the faces and edges that confer this curious appearance to the aggregate. The sample is very aerial, with deep color and it is on Quartz matrix, with small bits of Schorl on the back.

TC88V7: Polycrystalline aggregates (“mushroom” shaped) of Elbaite (rubellite) with very well developed curvatures on the faces and edges that confer this curious appearance to the aggregate. The crystals have three very different shades of color: pale pink on the prism faces, of fibrous aspect, and the terminal faces that present two different red tones. The growth of Elbaite is coating a crystal of Schorl as a hood.
