A delightful specimen of honey-orange colored grossular garnet crystals to 4mm from the famous Jeffrey mine, Quebec, Canada. The crystals are transparent, gem quality with a strong glassy luster. They have a rich and saturated honey-orange color - pure orange water. The grossular has a rhombic dodecahedral habit with sharp crystallization. Inclusions of diopside needles are seen too. For references see the 2013 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In very good condition – some outside edge contacts. On acrylic base.
Fabulous!
