Blue capped Dravite crystal from an unusual, one time find in 2017. This is a rare matrix specimen from the find, partially enclosed and bisected by Albite crystals. The crystal consists of a dark base followed by a translucent to transparent white zone, then a deep blue cap. The termination (blue and white zones) is partially etched but entire specimen is undamaged. Rare coloration for Dravite.
