"The matrix rock of this specimen is covered with hundreds of crystals of vanadinite, ranging in size from the tiny to nearly 0.2" (0.5cm). These crystals show excellent form. There is no damage to this specimen. Vanadinite's classic crystal habit is short hexagonal prisms terminated by a pinacoid, or flat basal face. These crystals are wider than they are long and are more blade-like than the barrel shaped crystals so common to the Apatite Group minerals. The high luster and deep red color give vanadinite a nice appeal to mineral collectors." Location: Mibladen, Morocco
