Item Description

A good example of the now well known Pargasite specimens from Pakistan. This specimen came out of the ground about 10 years ago, and is one of the better thumbnail matrix specimens I have offered in the auctions. The main crystal, which has a pleasing green color, and measures 1.0 cm and has decent luster sitting atop a matrix of contrasting white marble. Crystallized Pargasite with this color is not common in the world.
