Boracite

Here we have a good quality Boracite specimen from find the 2009 find in Bolivia. While these specimens are not a new find per se, they are newly mined specimens from this well-known locality. Most people are familiar with the "blue" Danburites (included by Magnesioriebeckite) from this locality, but the other staple species found here is Boracite.

This piece features a rare, sharp, well-formed, translucent, blue color cubic crystal of this hard-to-find species on matrix. There were very few crystals from the entire find on matrix, and I was very lucky to get as many good pieces as I did. Don’t miss out on a lovely piece of a species that is not often found in attractive specimens.
