Talc
Pietranera, Rovegno, Genoa, Liguria, Italy
10.7 x 8.3 x 2.7 cm
It's not common to find specimens of talc, let alone with such beautiful color. This piece has "balls" of talc having a soft blue green color sitting on matrix. The "balls" are actually somewhat gemmy when strongly backlit, which is not common in my experience with talc specimens.
