Description: Zircon Locality: Mt Malosa, Zomba District, Malawi (Locality at mindat.org) Size: thumbnail, 3 x 2.9 x 2 cm Zircon From a relatively recent find in Malawi, an extremely aesthetic cluster of three compound crystals of zircon, a FLOATER with no attachments or damage, and all terminations complete. Note the pretty repetition of the pyramidal form in the subterminations. For the locality, this is way beyond average - and rare enough there as it is.
