Cheetah Stone Slab - Classic Spotted Pattern with Druzy - Brazil Rare
This excellent Cheetah Stone slab displays the great classic cheetah pattern with a neat druzy pocket towards the top. This piece has good cabbing potential and should take a nice polish.

This distinctive material is named for its spotted cheetah-like patterns with characteristic black dots. Due to its origin in apatite mining operations, availability is extremely limited.
