It typically occurs as fine, glittering scales or dense inclusions within other minerals, most notably quartz. When present in quantity, the mica creates a soft, silky shimmer that shifts under changing light. Specular pyrite flecks are a frequent associate and add bright metallic sparkles to the green matrix. \u003c\/span\u003eThe material from Andakatany, Madagascar is particularly well-known for the intensity of its green colour and the even distribution of both fuchsite and pyrite within the quartz host. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eASSOCIATED MINERALS \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eChrome Mica, Pyrite\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eASSOCIATED  FEATURES \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eMetallic \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eASSOCIATED COLOUR\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eGreen, Gold, White\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMOHS HARDNESS SCALE\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e2 to 3\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePRODUCT DATA \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eLocality = Andakatany, Madagascar\u003cbr\u003eGrade = Good to Very Good Grade\u003cbr\u003eSize = 83 - 117 mm \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"QUARTZ - Fuchsite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50762033103041,"sku":"189-618-261016BM","price":1946.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2066\/6451\/files\/189618_11.jpg?v=1793087818","url":"https:\/\/www.toprocks.com\/products\/polished-fuchsite-quartz-with-pyrite-display-crystals-x-4-from-andakatany-madagascar","provider":"Toprock Gemstones and Minerals ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
