Beautiful, equant undamaged tetrahedron of Chambersite, a rare mineral found in salt formations in a small number of localities worldwide. Translucent 'Amethyst' purple in color and collected by Fred Pough in 1970. Ex. Chuck Trantham collection. Complete floater single crystal of uniform shape with 4 perfect terminations. A tiny natural growth depression on one edge is not damage. Good crystal!
