Sparkling specimen of very unusually colored in rich olive-yellow-green Garnet var. Andradite crystals up to 4mm from the famous Jeffrey mine, Quebec, Canada. This specimen comes from a small new find and due to its color can be identified as variety Topazolite. The Andradite crystals are transparent, gem quality with superb luster and saturated color. The contrast is strong due to the white matrix. For references see the 2013 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. Some contacts.

Marvelous!
