PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Fuchsite with Green Kyanite Crystals from Zimbabwe
Introducing an extraordinary collection of Fuchsite featuring striking green Kyanite crystals, sourced from the remote and inaccessible regions of Zimbabwe. Kyanite, primarily known for its vibrant blue hue and classification as an aluminosilicate mineral, is typically found in aluminum-rich metamorphic pegmatites and sedimentary rock. Its presence in metamorphic environments indicates the high-pressure conditions—often exceeding four kilobars—within which it formed.
This unique range of specimens showcases Kyanite crystals delicately embedded in stunning green Fuchsite. The vibrant green background enhances the allure of the Kyanite, creating a captivating contrast that highlights the mineral's beauty. Each crystal exhibits variable gemmy clarity, adding to its charm, with minor traces of mica accompanying the Kyanite, further enriching its visual texture.
The Fuchsite matrix is soft and workable, allowing enthusiasts and jewelers to enhance the exposure of the Kyanite crystals if desired. This collection represents a rare batch of minerals from an incredibly inaccessible area of Africa, making it not only a geological treasure but also a unique conversation piece for collectors and crystal enthusiasts.
