Product Information

A beautiful natural Brazilianite specimen from Minas Gerais, Brazil, displaying the soft yellow to pale golden colouring characteristic of this unusual and highly collectible phosphate mineral.

Despite its petite size, this is a fascinating little mineral specimen. The surface is covered in naturally formed crystalline texture, creating an almost sugary appearance that catches beautifully in the light. Areas range from softly translucent lemon yellow to paler creamy tones, with subtle variations visible throughout the formation.

At approximately 20.7mm, this is very much a miniature collector specimen rather than a large display piece, but its appeal lies in the mineral itself and its documented provenance. Brazilianite is considerably less commonly encountered than many familiar crystal varieties, making even smaller natural specimens particularly interesting for mineral collectors.

This piece is also an ex-collection specimen and comes with its accompanying mineral identification card, recording its locality as Divino das Laranjeiras, Doce Valley, Minas Gerais, Brazil.

Its compact size makes it perfect for a mineral cabinet, specimen collection or anyone beginning to explore less commonly encountered minerals from classic localities.

About Brazilianite

Brazilianite is a relatively uncommon phosphate mineral best known for its distinctive yellow to yellow-green colouring. It was first recognised from Brazil, which gives the mineral its name, and some of the world's best-known Brazilianite specimens originate from the mineral-rich pegmatites of Minas Gerais.

Collector specimens can range from small crystalline formations through to beautifully developed individual crystals, with colour varying from pale lemon yellow to richer yellow-green and golden shades.

Brazilianite is considerably softer than Quartz, with a Mohs hardness of approximately 5.5, meaning natural specimens require more careful handling than many commonly collected crystals.

This specimen originates from Divino das Laranjeiras, Doce Valley, Minas Gerais, Brazil and is an ex-collection piece with its accompanying locality card.
