Description

Schorlomite (1.6 cm) on a terminated Schorl. What should I say more. An amazing combo. Maybe not the best contrast :-) but for sure an unique specimen!!! The main Schorlomite is in a very good condition. At the bottom of the Schorl a second Schorlomite is visible.

Please watch the video in HD to see the whole specimen!!!!!
