***Bringing you the very finest minerals ebay has to offer!!***


Beryl var. Emerald "Trapiche"

Mun. de Muzo, Vasquez-Yacopí Mining District, Boyacá Department, Colombia

.87cm x .78cm x .72m

3.65cts


Description/Interesting Notes:

A rare example of this unusual form of emerald from Colombia!!! This specimen consists of a single complex emerald crystal that exhibits the rare and curious "trapiche" habit!!! Trapiche emeralds exist in two types, and this specimen is the much rarer "B" type - having radiating emerald spokes as opposed to having radiating black lines in a solid emerald ("A" type)!!! This specimen has all six "spokes" with rich emerald green color and gemmy clarity!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!! We have just returned from the East Coast Gem, Mineral & Fossil Show in Springfield, MA!!!
