Blue capped Dravite crystal from a unique, 2017 find - these have not been found since. There is a deep blue cap, followed by a translucent white zone, over an opaque, dark base. The blue is intensly colored and unusual for Dravite. Like most/many of these, the blue and white tip only covers a portion of the darker base. On many the terminations is etched, but this crystal has nice flat, smooth termination faces.
