Beautiful combination specimen with groupings of green epidote crystals to 3.0 cm across scattered over the top of this matrix consisting of crystallized andradite. Axinite is present in crystals to 3.5 cm in size, as well as needlelike colorless crystals of quartz. Very fine and choice. (This specimen is not in my collection.)
