Single transparent, undamaged Diopside crystal with excellent green color. This crystal is from the
famous pocket opened in December 2007 that produced crystals of exceptional
color, much better than typical Merelani Diopsides. For more information on this find, refer to page 77
of the January-February 2009 issue of the Mineralogical Record.
