“Short prismatic schorl crystals with good lustre and up to 1 cm. sit on a bed of milky quartzes , which in turn sit on a phlogopite crystal section that has pink calcite as its matrix.
Only the tip of one schorl crystal was visible when I collected this specimen. When I etched it with vinegar over the period over several days, the schorl cluster and the quartz appeared.
Personally collected with John Biczok and Doug Scott, May 2018”
