The longest freely projecting crystal reaches about 1.2 cm and shows a distinctly prismatic habit. Additional green crystals and aggregates emerge in both the upper and lower areas of the specimen.  <\/p>\n<p data-start=\"475\" data-end=\"869\">Small metallic pyrite crystals occur between the emerald crystals. The emeralds are predominantly translucent to opaque and display mint-green to somewhat stronger green tones. The contrast between the green crystals, golden pyrite, pale mineralization, and individual darker areas defines the varied surface of this compact specimen.  <\/p>\n<h3 data-section-id=\"mw5ga8\" data-start=\"871\" data-end=\"906\">Emerald from Chivor in Colombia<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"908\" data-end=\"1199\">Chivor is located in the Department of Boyac\u00e1 and belongs to Colombia\u2019s eastern emerald belt. The emeralds found there occur in mineralized veins and breccias within dark sedimentary rocks. Pyrite and quartz are among the commonly documented associated minerals of the Chivor mineralization.  <\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1201\" data-end=\"1535\">This specimen shows several emerald crystals on natural matrix, accompanied by small pyrite crystals. In addition to the longer prismatic crystal, further green crystal sections are distributed across the display side. The specimen therefore presents a three-dimensional section of emerald- and pyrite-bearing mineralization.  <\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1537\" data-end=\"1860\">With dimensions of 4.0 \u00d7 3.0 \u00d7 3.0 cm, this is a miniature specimen. The exact total weight, including the clear acrylic base, is 42.4 g. Its particular appeal lies in the several visible emerald crystals, the approximately 1.2 cm long main crystal, the small pyrite crystals, and its origin from Chivor. <\/p>\n<div class=\"TyagGW_tableContainer\">\n<div class=\"group TyagGW_tableWrapper flex flex-col-reverse w-fit\" tabindex=\"-1\">\n<table class=\"w-fit min-w-(--thread-content-width)\" data-start=\"1880\" data-end=\"2731\">\n<thead data-start=\"1880\" data-end=\"1906\">\n<tr data-start=\"1880\" data-end=\"1906\">\n<th class=\"last:pe-10\" data-start=\"1880\" data-end=\"1890\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Feature<\/th>\n<th class=\"last:pe-10\" data-start=\"1890\" data-end=\"1906\" data-col-size=\"md\">Description<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody data-start=\"1917\" data-end=\"2731\">\n<tr data-start=\"1917\" data-end=\"1969\">\n<td data-start=\"1917\" data-end=\"1931\" data-col-size=\"sm\"><strong data-start=\"1919\" data-end=\"1930\">Mineral<\/strong><\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"md\" data-start=\"1931\" data-end=\"1969\">Emerald, the green variety of beryl<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"1970\" data-end=\"2000\">\n<td data-start=\"1970\" data-end=\"1991\" data-col-size=\"sm\"><strong data-start=\"1972\" data-end=\"1990\">Associated mineral<\/strong><\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"md\" data-start=\"1991\" data-end=\"2000\">Pyrite<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"2001\" data-end=\"2044\">\n<td data-start=\"2001\" data-end=\"2015\" data-col-size=\"sm\"><strong data-start=\"2003\" data-end=\"2014\">Locality<\/strong><\/td>\n<td data-start=\"2015\" data-end=\"2044\" data-col-size=\"md\">Chivor, Boyac\u00e1, Colombia<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"2045\" data-end=\"2078\">\n<td data-start=\"2045\" data-end=\"2056\" data-col-size=\"sm\"><strong data-start=\"2047\" data-end=\"2055\">DImensions<\/strong><\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"md\" data-start=\"2056\" data-end=\"2078\">4.0 \u00d7 3.0 \u00d7 3.0 cm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"2079\" data-end=\"2130\">\n<td data-start=\"2079\" data-end=\"2093\" data-col-size=\"sm\"><strong data-start=\"2081\" data-end=\"2092\">Weight<\/strong><\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"md\" data-start=\"2093\" data-end=\"2130\">42,4 g including the acrylic base<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"2131\" data-end=\"2167\">\n<td data-start=\"2131\" data-end=\"2150\" data-col-size=\"sm\"><strong data-start=\"2133\" data-end=\"2149\">Size category<\/strong><\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"md\" data-start=\"2150\" data-end=\"2167\">Miniature specimen<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"2168\" data-end=\"2244\">\n<td data-start=\"2168\" data-end=\"2180\" data-col-size=\"sm\"><strong data-start=\"2170\" data-end=\"2179\">Color<\/strong><\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"md\" data-start=\"2180\" data-end=\"2244\">Emerald pale green to mint green;
