Natural, green spodumene is by far the rarest color of spodumene. Not only is this spodumene specimen naturally green with a fantastic termination, but it is also on a white, feldspar matrix. Adding to the already unlikely characteristics of this specimen, a striking, flower-type formation of albite, along with a small piece of smokey quartz accentuate this majestic masterpiece. This specimen also stands upright, on its own, which has a dramatic effect.
