{"product_id":"euxenite-y","title":"EUXENITE-(Y)","description":"The granite pegmatite at Urstad Feldspar mine at Hidra (Hitterø), Flekkefjord in southwest Agder, Norway is famous for very large crystals of Aeschynite-(Y) and some impressive Gadolinite-(Y) too. This is not where the rare earth element (REE)-bearing minerals finish though as seen with this nice Euxenite-(Y). It was previously labelled as Polycrase-(Y) but this identification has been updated to reflect the current position of the IMA that Polycrase-(Y) is identical to Euxenite-(Y) whose name takes precedence. In this miniature specimen Euxenite-(Y) forms a 1.6 cm long dark brown bladed crystal embedded flat within pegmatitic matrix, thus displaying the full 'blade' from one side with other bladed crystals evident in cross-section elsewhere in the specimen. Ex the comprehensive rare species collection assembled by the brothers Martin and Michael Günther (1951-2007 \u0026amp; 1956-2021).","brand":"Crystal Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57781229158735,"sku":"CC29773","price":185.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1011\/3748\/2063\/files\/CC29773_d6c749dd-e69c-43f9-94f9-20d29b2e2e34.jpg?v=1783982998","url":"https:\/\/crystalclassics.co.uk\/products\/euxenite-y","provider":"Crystal Classics UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
