Archivo: Brucite-169935

Descripción: Brucite Locality: Bazhenovskoe deposit, Asbest, Ekaterinburgskaya (Sverdlovskaya) Oblast', Middle Urals, Urals Region, Russia (Locality at mindat.org) Size: 10.5 x 7.8 x 7.4 cm. Dealer Bill Larson obtained this piece from a miner in Russia, who said he collected it in 1985-1988. The brucite crystals on this matrix specimen are absolutely outstanding and reach 4.0 cm across ; and have pearlescent luster with gemmy, pastel green interiors. Brucite is fairly uncommon worldwide and sharp crystals even more so - usually it forms jumbly crusts. As a whole, this is an imposing piece for the transparency and form of so many good crystals richly aggregated on a bit of matrix.
