Item Description

Sharp, highly lustrous, black augite prisms with green higlights are attractively set in the microcline matrix on this showy and uncommon combination from this classic Quebec locale. Periphery wear is noted, but this remains an excellent and highly representative example of the the combination species and locale. Ex George Elling Collection and undoubtably older material by the interesting and colorful label.
