This is an incredible green/yellow, fluorapatite crystal from Cerro del Mercado (Iron Mountain) in Durango, Mexico. It is completely free of the matrix and has a relatively perfect termination. The catalog number 2246 of this phantom specimen came from the Earl Calvert Collection.
At Cerro de Mercado, numerous veins containing gemmy, lemon-yellow to greenish fluorapatite crystals cut through the hematite massif. These crystals have been collected for decades from the area's iron mines, but they have become much more scarce with recent mechanization of the mining operations.
The bright, lustrous apatite crystals form hexagonal shapes with off-center terminations. They are found in vugs, often associated with quartz and calcite. Most crystals are around an inch in length, though larger crystals up to about 4 inches long have been found.
