Description

Rare Raspberry Red Beryl (also sometimes called Bixbite) on Topaz Crystal with Bixbyites (Direct Mine source) – Location: Thomas Range Juab Co. Utah. Thumbnail (see photo for more details). Here we have an attractive and rare tabular raspberry red beryl crystal on a topaz crystal from the Thomas Range in Utah. This is an attractive specimen of the tabular variety of red beryl. The crystal(s) is well-formed and sharp and has a raspberry red color; there are some small ‘gemmy’ areas. The beryl crystal is perched on a topaz crystal. There are also some small beryl crystals perched on the main beryl crystal. The topaz crystal is sharply formed; however the crystal has numerous quartz inclusions giving the crystal a grayish opaque appearance although there are small areas of gemmy amber color.
