Heart Jasper Onyx Labradorite Serpentine Aventurine Polished Gemstone Crystal Mineral Specimen (Black Astrophyllite w/Red Garnet)

• Size: 30-80mm long
• Astrophyllite is a rare titanium mineral found in some unusual granites and syenites. It produces a variable luster that can be nearly metallic in one specimen to vitreous in another. Its name translated means star sheets and probably is in allusion to the intergrown starlike aggregates that it can form.
• Astrophyllite means ‘Star Sheet’ and is probably named after the interwoven star shapes that this crystal sometimes forms. It is a dark coloured stone that often contains sparkling inclusions.
