Emerald Crystals on Matrix – Panjshir, Afghanistan

This listing is for a natural emerald crystal specimen on matrix originating from Panjshir Province, Afghanistan, a classic and world‑renowned locality for quality emeralds. The piece is offered by Rare Earth Specimens, a long‑established mineral dealer with strong feedback on eBay.

The specimen features emerald (beryl) crystals with the characteristic green color associated with genuine emerald specimens. Emerald is a variety of beryl that crystallizes in the hexagonal crystal system, and fine examples on matrix can show vibrant color and vitreous to sub‑vitreous luster on well‑formed crystal faces. From the listing images, the emerald crystals appear naturally formed and attached to their original host rock, preserving geological integrity with minimal handling alteration.

The specimen is offered in new, unused, undamaged condition, meaning there are no obvious repairs or artificial enhancements noted in the listing. However, exact size, weight, and detailed measurements are not specified — prospective buyers should request these from the seller if needed.

Emerald crystal specimens like this are prized by mineral collectors, display curators, and educational institutions due to their distinctive green color, crystal form, and geological interest. They are especially valued when the crystals remain on matrix, providing context for the growth environment and structural associations.
