Glassy blue/geen Apatite crystals adorn a clear, tabular Quartz crystal. Apatite crystals reach 1.7cm across. The Apatites don't photo well and to me, this one is much better in person.

Glassy blue/geen Apatite crystals and Siderite crystals cover one side of a narrow, flattened Quartz crystal. The Apatite crystals reach 1.4cm across and cover most of one side of the Quartz, with the tiny termination faces of the Quartz just visable. Loaded with thick, glassy crystals, better than photos.

Bornite crystals to 1.5 cm wide with a surficial coating of Malachite. The crystals are well separated and dispersed across the flat display face and the crystal form is discernable despite the Malachite coating. Bornite crystals are rare and those with Malachite coating rarer still.

Pair of gemmy green Vivianites, one pointing up and the other sort of down and across, in a vug in red sandstone matrix. Perhaps the most aesthetic specimen of these Vivianites I have ever seen. No damage.
