Item Description

A wonderful "Alpine type" specimen featuring very lustrous, metallic grey color, radiating, "rosette"-esque groups of Ilmenite on contrasting white to colorless gem quality crystallized Albite matrix with minor greenish Clinochlore. The quality is great, despite the smaller size of the Ilmenites. Minimal damage, and certainly fine for the species in general.
