Item Description

This is a cluster of lustrous, dark green epidote crystals, to 4.5 cm in length. Occasional highlights of a secondary thin deposition atop the large primary crystals emit a pistachio green color, and accent the sharp terminations. This is an EXCEPTIONAL example of Brazilia epidote from an old find here. Although some peripheral damage I spresent around the base, all major crystals, and the whole upwards-pointing display face, is intact. Valued $300
