Axinite from Butte County, California [db_pics/pics/J64a.jpg] Axinite from Butte County, California [db_pics/pics/J64b.jpg] Axinite from Butte County, California [db_pics/pics/J64c.jpg]

A rare specimen from Butte County in California showing a cluster of bladed, light brown, Axinite crystals. The largest crystal has clear areas and is in very good condition with only a small amount of microscopic chipping. Murdoch, Joseph & Robert W. Webb (1966), in Minerals of California, notes an occurrence near the Feather River and Yankee Hill areas, but little else is known. Comes mounted in a 1.25-inch perky box with an original old faded label. A true rarity for the California collector and much better than photos.
