DANBURITE CRYSTAL CLUSTER
A good sized Bright Danburite Crystal Cluster with clear crystals which look stunning. This mineral is getting a lot harder to find, possibly because of its location. Danburite is not a well-known mineral but is growing in popularity. With crystals similar to topaz, danburite offers a unique opportunity for a collector who likes perfectly transparent crystal clusters. People who admire clear quartz will like the different look of danburite. Its diamond-shaped cross-section and wedge like termination is a contrast to quartz’s hexagonal prisms and pyramidal terminations. Danburite’s original locality is now buried under the city of Danbury, Connecticut.
