FLUORAPATITE, PYRITE

A very good-sized fluorapatite crystal with well-defined faces and edges, with the prism shapes of various orders, truncated by pinacoid and small dipyramid faces. Transparence is very good, allowing us to see color zoning between light and darker green. A miniature from this classic Portuguese locality.
