Splendid combination of green Garnet var. Grossular var. Chromian with Prehnite. The Grossular crystals are gem, up to 1mm with nice green color, which is result of Chromium. Dodecahedral sharp crystallization, glassy luster and irresistible color. Transparent Prehnite crystals with flat tips enrich the display. Uncommon specimen from this great and closed mine. For references see the 2013 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. Some contacts. On acrylic base.

Superb!
