Titanite

Item Description

Arondu is one of the lesser known Titanite localities in Pakistan, but this area has produced some top quality crystals of the species, especially some killer twins. These are "Alpine-type" Titanite crystals, and the would be worth a great deal to any Alpine collector if there were found in Austria, Italy or Switzerland. This specimen features dozens of sharp, lustrous, gemmy, rich green color crystals of Titanite - some of which are twinned - associated with Adularia on matrix. The crystals measure up to 6 mm, and are best seen under magnification, but they are fine quality. These pieces are some of the most difficult to obtain from Pakistan, especially these days.
