The anatase crystals from this Norwegian locality are a classic of world mineralogy. They are notable for their size. In this specimen, we see a crystal formed by a tetragonal bipyramid truncated at the vertices by pinacoids. Growth s and some small chips can be observed, but they do not detract from the quality of the specimen. It is disopsed very aerial on a small quartz matrix. 4q1t3b
A very sharp anatase crystal showing the tetragonal dipyramid, truncated by the pinacoidal faces. Brilliant, with almost black color but with bluish reflections, metallic luster. The crystal has a small damage in the back edge, which does not affect aesthetics. With a minor quartz crystals matrix. These crystals appear in the Alpine fissures, most of which are found in the Hardangervidda National Park. A classic European piece from many years ago.
