Locality: Flintkote Mine, Pontbriand, Mégantic Co., Québec, Canada
A magnification of one of the vugs from the 6 pieces. As in the previous photo this is a yellowish green crystal of vesuviantite. I am reasonably sure since vesuvianite is know to come from these veins with prehnite. Also the terminations of the prism are vesuvianite forms.
