A very strange spinel crystal disclosing an overall pseudo-trigonal shape ...well something went wrong with the cubic ambitions of this crystals, you can see still some half octahedron shape if you hold the crystal prober but something kept the crystal growing only in one direction after a while...haven’t seen anything like that before...TOP Spinel!
