An excellent cabinet specimen. Large, green, terminated apatite crystals sit on a matrix of orange calcite creating a beautiful contrast. Under midwave UV, the apatite crystals fluoresce a bright purplish-blue hue, while the calcite fluoresces a red.

There are minor areas of black augite throughout the second side of the matrix.
