Tsavorite with Pyrite (Ref: T933)
Merelani Hills, Arusha, Tanzania
25mm x 7mm x 6mm
minID: WVV-2P2
Formation of elongated Tsavorite crystals that grade up in size towards the top, with attached tiny Pyrite crystals. Glassy and well crystallized all around. This style of Tsavorite is new this year and highly unusual, and a wonderful surprise from the Merelani mines.
It's essentially a floater, with a small point of contact at the thick end. At the right angle it looks like a lightning bolt. An amazing specimen!!!
