An aesthetic specimen of andradite, a variety of melanite, formed by numerous, well-defined, idiomorphic crystals, with the dodecahedron faces truncated by the trapezohedron ones. They are lustrous and shows greenish reflections and transparencies when light hits them. They are on both sides of the sample, with numerous elongated, prismatic crystals of green pargasite, one of the first historically described amphiboles.

An amazing specimen of andradite, a variety of melanite, formed by numerous, well-defined idiomorphic crystals, with dodecahedron faces truncated by trapezohedron faces. They are lustrous and exhibit greenish reflections and transparencies when light hits them. They are arranged in a highly contrasting manner on a light-colored matrix.
A sized specimen of andradite, a variety of melanite, formed by numerous, well-defined idiomorphic crystals, with dodecahedron faces truncated by trapezohedron faces. They are lustrous and exhibit greenish reflections and transparencies when light hits them. They are arranged in a highly aesthetic way on a matrix with green prismatic epidote crystals and prehnite aggregates.
A very aesthetic specimen of andradite, a variety of melanite, formed by numerous, well-defined, idiomorphic crystals, with the dodecahedron faces truncated by the trapezohedron ones. They are lustrous and shows greenish reflections and transparencies when light hits them. They are disposed in a very aerial way on a matrix formed by numerous elongated, prismatic crystals of green pargasite, one of the first historically described amphiboles.

This specimen from Mali shows us three doubly terminated epidote crystals, with well defined faces and edges and an intense green color. It is accompanied by sheaf aggregates of stilbite, a presentation different from the usual one for the deposit. Very aerial and aesthetic.
