Large red Spinel from Mahenge. Spinels from this locality are rare on the specimen market because the vast majority are cut up a gems, which are spectacular from this locality. This is a large octahedral crystal of good color and the addition of the green Pargasite makes for an attractive specimen. Lots of small gemmy areas as can be seen in the lower photo - this would cutmany small stones if broken up which I estimate would retail for at least the price of the specimen.
