Beautiful, well saturated bi-color Apatite crystals with deep purple cores and blue caps on each end on a bladed Feldspar matrix.  Golconda Apatites are superb.  A small batch was recently released at Tucson and sold rapidly.  This specimenw as found a few years ago but is equally superb in quality of the crystals, with glassy luster and rich coloration of the crystals. 5 x 5 x 4 cm.
