This is a striking thumbnail-sized brookite crystal from the Kharan District, Baluchistan Province, Pakistan. Measuring 2.3 x 1.8 x 0.3 cm and weighing 3 grams, this specimen showcases the vibrant, fiery red hue for which brookite from this region is celebrated. The crystal exhibits excellent translucency, allowing light to pass through and highlight its vivid internal coloration.
Despite a minor ding at the top termination, the crystal remains in good overall condition and retains its sharp, well-defined edges. What truly sets this piece apart are the remarkable phantom inclusions visible within the crystal. These give the specimen an impressive sense of depth and create a striking dimensional effect when viewed from the front.
Altogether, this brookite specimen is visually captivating and displays superb aesthetics. Its intense color, fascinating internal structure, and classic locality make it a desirable addition for collectors specializing in Pakistani minerals or exceptional crystal thumbnails.
