Item Description

A highly aesthetic, "floater" specimen from the Sougounikoura diggings in Mali featuring several doubly-terminated, rather lustrous, dark, greenish-black prismatic crystals of Epidote measuring up to 5.8 cm long, which play host to little white bladed crystals of Stilbite-Ca and translucent spherical groups of "water green" colored Prehnite. I can see a few spots featuring a secondary deposition of tiny translucent greenish-golden crystals of Epidote. Superb quality and aesthetics, no damage that I can find. These pieces
From the worldwide mineral collection of geologist, Demetrius Pohl.
