Mineral Specimen #6319    Xenotime on Hematite with Rutile

Novo Horizonte, Bahia, Brazil

5.2 x 2.9 x 1 cm

Small, brown colored Xenotime crystals on the side of a flat Hematite crystal. The side with the Xenotime crystals has a coating of reddish brown. The larger sides are nearly black in color and smooth and as reflective as a mirrored surface. There are also a few epitaxial Rutile crystals embedded on one side of the specimen.

Condition: Fairly Good

Flaws: There is a conchoidal chipped area on one of the edges of the Hematite crystal (visible in the 5th and 6th pictures). Some of the Xenotime crystals are incomplete.
