3.1" Magenta Erythrite Crystal Cluster - Morocco
This mineral specimen from Morocco contains lustrous deep purple erythrite crystals.
Erythrite is a soft and delicate secondary mineral, typically forming prismatic crystals in cobalt-bearing deposits. Erythrite from around the world is known for displaying a deep purple luster, with crystals from Bou Azzer, Morocco having some of the largest and most magnificent characteristics around.
Finding specimens with large crystals is more rare than not, due to the difficulty in removing erythrite from it's matrix, without breakage.
