The main crystals are sharp, blocky, and well-faced, with strong reflective lustre and visible stepped growth lines on several crystal faces. Smaller Anatase points are scattered through the piece, mixed with clear to milky Quartz crystals and rough textured host rock. It has a compact display size, with good contrast between the black Anatase, light Quartz, and earthy matrix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1344\" data-end=\"1831\"\u003eKharan District material is well known among collectors for producing sharp anatase on quartz- and albite-rich matrix, and the district’s occurrences are tied to pegmatitic and alpine-type settings. Mindat lists quartz and albite among the most common associated minerals at these localities, and published descriptions of Kharan pieces from Zard Mountain describe the same general style of quartz-albite matrix with dark, lustrous anatase crystals. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1833\" data-end=\"2190\"\u003eMany people are drawn to anatase for its crisp structure and focused look. In metaphysical circles, it is often associated with concentration, clarity, and staying mentally steady during periods of change. On a specimen like this, that appeal comes from the mineral’s naturally disciplined crystal form as much as from any symbolic tradition attached to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e1pc\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eWith this product, you will get the actual stone in the photograph.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pakistan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48849255202986,"sku":null,"price":450.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/7158\/3658\/files\/AnataseKharanDistrictBalochestan-Pakistan-450g.jpg?v=1784681009","url":"https:\/\/rubblerockandgem.com\/fr\/products\/anatase-specimen-8","provider":"Rubble Rock And Gem","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
