02031: Microcline - $14 Columbite Pocket, Oceanview Mine, Chief Mountain, Pala Mining District, San Diego County, California Miniature - 5.9 x 4.7 x 3.4 cm 96 grams Specimen status: Available Send an email with specimen number to order A nearly complete, complex microcline
crystal having some small gemmy parts. Very typical for
the locality. I collected this specimen on July 6, 2003
from a pocket that yielded numerous etched aquamarines,
columbites, microclines and other pegmatite goodies. I had
the honor of naming the pocket after its most interesting
mineral therein.
