Spinel on Chondrodite - USA classic (Ref: 21.1-043)
Amity, Orange County, New York, United States
46mm x 38mm x 29mm
minID: 7DK-WN4
The famed old Spinel locality of Amity was one of the first of the Eastern USA Classic locales. The exact original locality may be lost today but the Skarns in the area have yielded some nice Spinels from time to time. This is an older piece with fine octahedral Spinel crystals on a crystalline orange Chondrodite matrix. Ex Hladysz collection, this has sharp form, nice arrangement and excellent luster with no damage. Displays very well from several angles and better in person.From: Well-Arranged Molecules
