3.1" Muscovite & White Albite Crystal Association - Brazil

Here is a beautiful cluster of muscovite crystals that are associated with white albite, collected from Brazil. The specimen is just over 3.1" long and displays eye catching non-metallic luster. This specimen is accompanied with an acrylic display stand.

Muscovite is a phyllosilicate mineral of aluminium and potassium. It has a highly perfect basal cleavage yielding remarkably thin laminae which are often highly elastic.
