Combination specimens with all three classic minerals (cassiterite, aquamarine, muscovite) at this size are increasingly difficult to source. DISPLAY & CARE Place on a stand or in a display case, away from prolonged direct sunlight (UV can fade some minerals over time). Dust gently with a soft brush. If cleaning is needed, wipe with a slightly damp cloth and pat dry. Many crystals have perfect cleavage and can chip if dropped.
