Good sized Kyanite crystal with good, flat termination faces on one end, good color, and translucent. Kyanite is not commonly found
at Merelani. Prior to the recent batch, I have only ever had a single crystal. Like other minerals from Merelani, the color of this Kyanite is great,
a much deeper blue than the more commonly seen Brazilian Kyanite. I value this crystal at $150 due to it's color, size, and locality and due to
the fact that terminated Kyanite crystals just aren't that common.
