Talc

Item Description

Good example of the softest of all minerals, Talc, from an undisclosed locality in Georgia. The light, mint-green color is attractive, and the bright, pearly luster is superb. This specimen grew around a hexagonal prism of some sort, as three of the faces are preserved in a mold that extends all along the entire center of this small cab. A very fine Talc with all its positive features, this was #1191 in Kay's collection, acquired in 1959.
