Description

A multitude of very nice, sharp, sometime twinned, green crystals of clinoferrosilite, many of which stand straight on the matrix, together there are small crystals of amethyst and all stay on a bed of colorless-milky sanidine crystals.

Clinoferrosilite is a clinopyroxene dimorph of ferrosilite and isostructural with clinoenstatite.  Clinoferrosilite rarely is been found in single euhedral crystals. They are probably the best known crystals for this specie. Good specimen.
