Fascinating vesuvianite crystals with raspberry caps from the famous Jeffrey mine, Quebec, Canada. The sharp and well terminated crystals are gem. They have a light apple–green hue to saturated and rich raspberry caps. The luster is very strong and the crystals are transparent and glassy. For references see the 2013 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In good condition – some contacts. On acrylic base.
Cool!
