TV46AL2: A novelty at Tucson 2020. Tremolite crystal (chromium-bearing variety), on a Dolomite matrix, with very well defined faces and edges, with a polycrystalline termination, an intense luster between vitreous and silky, translucent, but with greater transparency than usual in specimens from this area and of green-gray color with bluish tints.
From a very recent find, the quality is superior to that generally known in the St. Lawrence County area.
Big Mole claim, West Pierrepont, St. Lawrence County, New York USA (06/2019)
Specimen size: 7 × 2.1 × 1.8 cm = 2.76” × 0.83” × 0.71”
