Gorgeous jewel of top quality and extremely sparkling Garnet var. Grossular var. Chromian. The crystals are ultimately gem and clear to 1mm. They have super deep bright green color, due to Chromium. Rhombic dodecahedral sharp crystallization, glassy luster and irresistible color. Delicate Diopside needle crystals add a nice accent. Some Clinochlore is seen too. It is very hard to find one of these – the mine is inactive now. This is of truly superior quality – very fresh and sparkling. Displays on 360 degree. For references see the 2013 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In excellent condition – some small contacts.

Exceptional gem-green Garnets!
