Orthoclase

Shigar Valley, Skardu District, Baltistan, Northern Areas, Pakistan

266

One of the best formed specimens of orthoclase i have seen.  Two large and numerous smaller crystals combine to make it a really pretty specimen. The othoclase crystals are snow white, lustrous and sharp, and up to 30 mm in length. the back has a small 10mm aquamarine crystal and a  number of schorl crystals but it is without doubt an orthoclase feldspar specimen.
