This is a cluster of glassy and gemmy, richly green, demantoid crystals reaching 1.1 cm in length. The cluster is rich and bright, and the crystals cascade nicely across the matrix. The display crystals are pristine and show all faces save only for the large crystal on the right, which exhibits the contact outline of a previously attached crystal. The white matrix was actually limestone which has been, amazingly, metamorphosed (metasomatized) into garnet in ancient geological time. Incredible origins for a matrix garnet specimen, and yet another reason to value this new deposit so highly.
