Item Description

Cummingtonite is an uncommon Amphibole Group silicate. This sculptural piece is a solid vuggy, jackstraw boxwork of acicular crystals. MINDAT does not list cummingtonite from Providence County. This is a very rare, perhaps unique example of the species from this Rhode Island locale. Ex Eugene Carmichael Collection. A MUST for the locality or species collector.
