Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Grossular, Vesuvianite
Locality: Belvidere Mountain Quarries (Vermont Asbestos Group mine; VAG mine; Ruberoid Asbestos mine; Eden Mills quarries), Lowell & Eden, Orleans & Lamoille Cos., Vermont, USA (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: 6.5 x 4.4 x 3.4 cm.
The bright, jewel-like garnets from this locality are treasured in old collections, and now hard to obtain. This particularly fine specimen has super lustre, intense deep color, and good aesthetics - the isolation on contrasting crystallized matrix is unusual. The crystals reach 9 mm and leap out very 3-dimensionally. Unfortunately, although the left side crystals (the best part) are pristine, the large crystal on the right side, and another above it, are cleaved.
