Vesuvianite (deep purple variant) (Ref: 17.AL-502)

Jeffrey Mine, Asbestos, Québec, Canada
20mm x 14mm x 14mm
minID: T0R-QME
Small but intense rich purple Vesuvianite with magenta and dark green areas. The color is deeper and more intense than the computer monitor can render well. The luster is glass-like and the specimen clearly has two generations of growth. Some of the smaller crystals show hoppered terminations. The "matrix" is a blocky crystal of Vesuvianite that shows signs of being recrystallized as well. This is the most uncommon color found at Jeffrey and essentially unknown from any other locale.
