Ferrosilite & Fluorapatite on Calcite

Yates Mine, Otter Lake, Pontiac County, Quebec, Canada

Ex. Fred Magarrey Collection 

7.7 x 6 x 4.6 cm

An extremely rare combination from the famous closed location in Quebec, Canada. It’s not often you see terminated crystals of both ferrosilite and fluorapatite on the same calcite matrix. This is definitely one of a kind. Both the prismatic crystals have complete terminations with the fluorapatite measuring 4.3 cm in length and the ferrosilite being over 3 cm. This piece came from the collection of the late Fred Magarrey. Fred was a lifelong collector who resided in Lincoln, Nebrask.
