Description

This specimen features greenish, striated and bended zoisite crystals in some kind of skarn matrix.

From old Dr. Krantz stock, comes with an uncommon label written on purple paper. I was not able to identify a locality "Wotlawa" near Kongsberg, maybe it is a wrong transcription or a somehow vanished place, village or local center.
