Description: Lepidolite Locality: Virgem da Lapa, Jequitinhonha valley, Minas Gerais, Southeast Region, Brazil (Locality at mindat.org) Beautiful, floater crystals of lepidolite! Many of us normally dismiss this mineral as "matrix" but these stand on their own merits as fine crystal specimens. In person, very lustrous and quite beautiful as they are a deep hue of lavender-purple. 2.4 x 2.1 x 0.7 cm
