A pleasing specimen of garnet var. grossular var. chromian from the famous Jeffrey mine, Quebec, Canada. The grossular crystals are gemmy to 1mm. They have an apple-green color due to chromium. The garnets are with a good crystallization, strong luster and sparkle nicely. For references see the 2013 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In good condition – some contacts. On acrylic base.

Splendid green garnets!
