Description

Rarer material from Namibia. 2002 there were some finds of actinolite with crystals up to 5 cm from the Ais Dome.

This one was acquired in 2005 and shows dark green actinolites with quartz. Probably the accompanying calcite was etched away, nevertheless a very nice specimen from this rarer locale with large crystals.

Hard to obtain!
