What a stunning specimen. Mirror bright, deep olive-green and partially transparent epidote richly perched on typically matrix. It is so aesthetic that I can´t stop to praise it. Even it is a mini it would be an enrichment for each aesthetic collection. The whole display side is undamaged, the crystals are superb terminated and razor sharp. A fantastic piece from the world famous locale of this species. A superb classic.
