Grossular garnet

Cerro de Moka, Sierra de Cruces, Municipio de Sierra Mojada, Coahuila, Mexico

$550
Miniature

41 x 40 x 23 mm overall

This is a great specimen with a pair of large sharp, dramatic, intergrown, well-formed, lustrous, elongated crystals of ruby-red Grossular garnets to 39 x 21 x 19 mm. A few other garnets are also present. Like all these specimens, the garnets were mechanically excavated without any repairs, are in very good condition, with just a few dings present, as is normal with these specimens. A portion of one of the crystal pairs is incompletely formed showing the greenish core. The piece is exceptionally good, with very large crystals for this locality, and has nice aesthetics. It is much better than the photos show. Collected December of 1992 by Graham Sutton and Bob Griffis.

Specimen #  SC004
