Special TUCSON SHOW 2012 Auctions!!!


***Bringing you the very finest minerals ebay has to offer!!***


Epidote

North Carolina

2.14cm x .73cm x .45cm

Ex. Clifford Joseph Collection


Description/Interesting Notes:

A rare, old time example of epidote from North Carolina!!! This specimen consists of a complete, undamaged, doubly-terminated crystal of epidote!!! In addition to being doubly terminated, the crystal also appears to be twinned along the c-axis!!! The twinning is much more evident in person as well!!! The crystal has sharp, glassy faces and marked clarity!!! With backlighting, one can see that this crystal exhibits strong pleochroism - showing distinct greenish color when viewed through the broad face and brownish color when viewed on edge!!! A fantastic specimen for the locality!!! This specimen retains an old label that simply notes its locality as North Carolina!!! Rare material!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
