This is the only undamaged, aesthetic matrix piece in a batch of some 300 crystals, that I saw from this find when it came in about a year ago (2007-2008). It features a twinned, upright 3.9-cm-long titanite crystal that is totally gemmy and transparent, with a light olive-green color, perched on matrix of calcite and epidote. A fine miniature for the specis and locality. Ex. Laura and Stevia Thompson Collection.
