Formation of elongated Tsavorite crystals with attached Sphene, Diopside, and Pyrite crystals. Excellent color on the Tsavorite, glassy and well crystallized all around. This style of Tsavorite is new this year and highly unusual, and a wonderful surprise from the Merelani mines. It's well crystallized all around with the top and the bottom as a possible point of contact, it may have spanned the entire pocket. An amazing specimen!!!
