A NOTE FROM NICK

A Pair of Polished Lepidolite Points. Zimbabwean Dark Purple material (deposits have been bought up by big Lithium mining interests now, so rough availability is now very limited the darker the purple, the higher the lithium content, so its not getting out of the mining area easily.)
