A specimen that is very hard to find. It is difficult for me to decide which is more significant: the extraordinary growth of the sharp crystals of the Chromium rich Amesite, or their brilliance and color (which is really intense if you use incandescent light). Another point of interest is the very unusual association with Perovskite, which is perfectly crystallized, which is perfectly crystallized. It has been sawn, which was the only way to reduce the matrix without destroying it.
