Transparent green Tsavorite crystals, Diopside, and a transparent blue Apatite crystal on Graphite crystals. This is a stunning specimen loaded with gem crystals. The Tsavorite are glassy and transparent, the blue Apatite is 3-4mm long but fully terminated and transparent. The Graphite crystals are also bladed and well formed. Great example of many species from this mine.
