Staurolite with Spessartine Garnet

"Snake Ridge," Brasstown, Cherokee Co., North Carolina

2.24cm x 2cm x 1.25cm

Ex. Albert Peppis Collection


Description/Interesting Notes:

A unique old time example of staurolite from North Carolina!!! This specimen consists of a sharp "cross" twin of staurolite in association with small spessartine garnets!!! Usually, the garnets associated with these specimens are reduced to rounded opaque masses, however this specimen hosts a spessartine crystal that is actually sharp and gemmy!!! Also, there is a lively red spessartine crystal - consisting of crystal grains embedded right in the center of crystals' intersection!!! The pics say it all!!! This specimen is from the Albert Peppis Collection - detailed information about both him and the collection are on our "About Me" page - so be sure to check it out!!!
