The rare and exquisite combination of Microlite crystals on Microcline with Muscovite from Pakistan showcases the harmonious convergence of geological elements in a mesmerizing display of nature's artistry. The Microcline, a variety of feldspar, forms the foundation of this specimen, presenting a captivating backdrop with its subtle hues and distinct crystal structure. Sprouting from this mineral canvas are delicate Microlite crystals, each a miniature masterpiece in its own right. These microlites, composed of complex niobium and tantalum oxides, adorn the Microcline matrix with a brilliant dance of colors, ranging from warm yellows to deep reds. The interplay between the Microlite crystals and the Microcline creates a visual symphony that captures the eye and stimulates the imagination.

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.
