Description
Relatively rare Grossular specimen from the 1970s from the skarn-type Lead-Zink deposit of Dognecea in the Banat region of western Romania. Lime green, gemmy crystals with a vitreous luster, some perfectly crystallized, some in fragments in a whitish Talc matrix. This kind of specimen was not very common 50 years ago, and it does not come as a surprise that they have now almost completely disappeared from the market. Another one of these specimens that are better in person!
