Beryl var. "Trapiche" Emerald
Pena Blanca Mine, Mun. de San Pablo de Borbur, Vasquez-Yacopi Mining District, Boyaca Department, Colombia
.67cm x .6cm x .58cm
Description/Interesting Notes:
A rare example of this unusual form of emerald from Colombia!!! This specimen consists of a single complex
emerald crystal that exhibits the rare and curious "trapiche" habit!!! Trapiche emeralds exist in two types, and
this specimen is the much rarer "B" type - having radiating emerald spokes as opposed to having radiating black
lines in a solid emerald ("A" type)!!! This specimen has all six "spokes" with rich emerald green color and gemmy
clarity!!! Simply a fantastic example of this very rare emerald habit!!!
The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
