Arqueana claim
Piauí valley, Taquaral, Itinga, Minas Gerais, Brazil
A small claim producing fine gemmy specimens of elbaite and fluor-elbaite.
Showing the single result
I believe Arqueana refers to the company Arqueana de Minerios E Metais Ltda, a mining concern that held numerous mineral claims in Minas Gerais.
Unfortunately I have no further information on the locale, although mindat shows a rough location and several specimen photographs from the site.
