Item Description
A nice association specimen of Grossluar with Augite (var Fassaite) on white Calcite from the Camonica Valley in Italy. The dodecahedral Grossular crystals have a soft orange-gold color, with sharp faces, good luster and are essentially opaque. The largest Grossular measures 6 mm across. Good reference piece for a Garnet collector.
