A super Amazonite Crystal Cluster. It features great crystal formation and aqua blue green colouration.

GLAUBERITE CRYSTALS
A lovely specimen of Glauberite Crystals. Initially these specimens are clear when first fished out of the mud with cut and bloodied hands. They turn white after contact with the Oxygen in the air. The fossicker who fished this one told me the second day was worse when cuts on his fingers were roughed up again. This happens when feeling around deep in the mud for them. Great fun. This is a rare and unusual Aussie mineral. The last big one found in an old box.
