A most unusual Danburite specimen from this famous locality. Typically, the Danburites from Chapare show a distinctive blue color that is caused by inclusions of the rare amphibole , Magnesioriebeckite. The main crystal on this specimen has a rarely seen golden-brown color. Along with the translucency and the fact that it’s on matrix, it’s a cool oddity that would make a nice addition to a Bolivian suite, or a collection of unusual minerals.
