Tetrahedral crystal 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. This is a complete crystal - though one termination is cavernous, the edges of the indentation are fully crystalized and terminated. Ex. Chuck Trantham collection.
