Tormiq is one of the classic Titanite localities in Pakistan, and this area has produced some superb crystals of the species, especially some outstanding twins. These are "Alpine-type" Titanite crystals. This specimen features a very pronounced, sharp, lustrous, bright green, twinned crystal of Titanite with Adularia and minor Clinochlore on matrix. This specimen is a very attractive miniature and these pieces are some of the most difficult to obtain from Pakistan.
