Nice specimen of Vesuvianite with Diopside from the famous Jeffrey mine, Quebec, Canada. The Vesuvianites have pleasing apple-green color and some minor purple. They are gemmy with strong luster and are well shaped. Some Diopsides grow above. They are transparent, colorless and gemmy. Crystallized all over. For references see the 2013 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In good condition – some contacts. On acrylic base.

Pleasing!
