DB46E2: Very well defined crystals of Spessartine that are transparent and have lots of color. Smoky Quartz with good color and intense brilliance. Dotted across the matrix are groups of leafy crystals of Clinochlore. And all that is on a fine matrix, so it is a light specimen.
It was photographed for the ‘what’s new at St Marie 2004’ section of the magazine ‘Minéraux et Fossiles’ and appears on page 35 of number 331.
