Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Spessartine
Locality: Navegadora Mine (Navegador Mine; Orozimbo Mine), Penha do Norte, Conselheiro Pena, Doce valley, Minas Gerais, Southeast Region, Brazil (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: miniature, 3.6 x 2.9 x 2.1 cm
Spessartine Garnet
This is a dramatic, sculptural crystal of glassy and gemmy spessartine with superb reddish-orange color. It is a complete floater which exhibits etching od dissolution effects like others here; but also it shows , I think, several of the original pre-etching garnet faces on top still. The geometry is very good, the gemminess is very good, the lustre is brilliant...overall a superb miniature! Approx 37 grams.
