Here you get a rarity a gem hibonite, a mineral which isn’t that rare itself but with cutting grade transparency it wasn’t found before. The mineral was mistaken as phlogopite, probably for years. Around 15 pieces have been found with a fine transparency and intact crystals are even rarer. This crystal has some minor damaged on the prism face but intact flat terminations with almost trapiche like striation. Great stone with a weight of more that 3 carats and real gemmy transparency!
