This is a specimen of Star Mica or Muscovite and Quartz cluster. These clusters show crystals that grow in sheets or book formations. It is silvery gold with good transparency when held up to the light. The name Muscovite comes from the term Muscovy Glass which was a name for the thick sheets of Mica used as a substitute for glass Russia. The name Mica is derived from the Greek word that means to split.
On this nice specimen, the matrix faces are covered with beautiful golden yellow point stars of muscovite mica, a typical shape for this rare mica formation. The stars are the result of twinning; the points show a bit of wear but this does not detract from the beauty of such a piece.

I ordered a Myanmar ruby of 1.85 ct. and a 1.2 ct. garnet. They processed my order the same day and the package showed up at home only two business days later. Beautiful gems, beautifully presented and excellent service. The website is a joy to peruse. I immediately ordered half a dozen more for a birthstone project. The best source i found for stones in Canada. Thanks Laura & Jean!
Très belle pièce. Je commence à collectionner les météorites et cette pièce est peu dispendieuse et va enrichir ma collection. Expédition rapide et excellente communication avec les gens de Canagem. AAA+++
It wasn't until I got a new UV light that I was able to see the amazing colour of this flourite. The specimen is very attractive in natural light, and crazy beautiful under 254nm UV! I love it!
