Fantastic small jewel of gem Garnet var. Grossular with green phantoms from the famous Jeffrey mine, Quebec, Canada. The Grossular crystals are gem and clear up to 3mm. They have green cores due to Chromium. The crystals are sharp, glassy and have irresistible color. White Albite forms the base and underlines the Garnets nicely. For references see the 2013 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In very good condition – some small contacts. On acrylic base.

Gorgeous gem-green Garnets!
