Rare Vayrynenite Crystals — Skardu, Pakistan
A crystal will be intuitively chosen for you.
These are legitimately rare and highly desirable specimens for any serious mineral collector. Vayrynenite is one of the least-common phosphate minerals on the market, and good crystals—especially with this warm peach-to-pink tone—are extremely difficult to source.
💎 Authentic Vayrynenite from Skardu, Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan
Skardu is one of the very few active localities in the world that produces Vayrynenite, and it typically yields extremely limited production. Most pieces never make it out of private hands or high-end dealer pipelines.
💎 Strong Color for the Species
These crystals show a beautiful saturated peach-rose tone, far richer than the pale or washed-out examples more commonly seen. The clarity and internal glow are excellent for this mineral.
💎 Crystal Form & Striations
Even though Vayrynenite often forms in small, brittle fragments, these pieces show clear prism faces, natural striations, and well-developed terminations or cleavage surfaces. For this mineral, that’s exceptional.
💎 Size Range With Measurable Structure
These crystals are small but well-shaped, falling in the ~5–15 mm range (per the scale photo). Most Vayrynenite specimens on the market are tiny splinters—this lot shows actual form.
Why Vayrynenite Is So Rare
It forms only in highly specific pegmatite conditions alongside minerals like spodumene, triphylite, and beryl.
It breaks extremely easily, so intact crystals are seldom recovered.
Many deposits are no longer producing.
Demand among high-end collectors has skyrocketed while supply remains almost nonexistent.
Skardu is currently the only locality regularly producing display-quality crystals—and even these only appear in short, sporadic pockets.
Ideal For
✔ High-end mineral collections
✔ Rare phosphate species collectors
✔ Buyers looking for truly uncommon colors and crystal forms
Summary
This is a genuine, rare, and highly desirable lot of Vayrynenite crystals with excellent color and natural form from Skardu, Pakistan. Pieces like these are seldom available. A fantastic opportunity to add a very hard-to-source mineral to your collection or inventory.
