This sculptural specimen of Microcline Feldspar with Schorl, sourced from Pakistan, showcases a stunning combination of vibrant colors and intricate textures. The Microcline Feldspar, a prominent member of the feldspar mineral group, features a range of pastel hues, predominantly green to bluish-green, giving the piece a captivating visual appeal. Its crystal structure is blocky and well-formed, with a glassy to pearly luster that enhances its aesthetic value. Interspersed throughout the Microcline matrix are striking black needles and prismatic crystals of Schorl, a variety of black tourmaline. The Schorl crystals contrast sharply against the lighter feldspar, creating a dramatic and eye-catching display. The overall formation appears naturally sculptural, with a balance of sharp angles and smooth surfaces, reflecting the dynamic geological processes that formed this mineral specimen.

Microlite Minerals become once referred to as light-yellow, reddish-brown, or black isometric minerals composed of sodium calcium tantalum oxide with a small quantity of fluorine. Its chemical formula is (Na, Ca)2Ta2O6(O, OH, F). Nowadays it’s far a call for a collection of oxide minerals of a similar stoichiometry having tantalum prevailing over titanium and niobium.
The microlite organization belongs to a large pyrochlore super group that takes place in pegmatite's and constitutes an ore of tantalum. Microlite was first defined in 1835 for an occurrence at the Island of Uto, state of Stockholm, Sweden. Some other prevalence of microlite is the Clark Ledges pegmatite, Chesterfield, Hampshire County, Massachusetts. The name is from Greek micros for small and lithos for stone.
