Radial groups of Emerald crystals in black schist matrix. Unusual formation of crystals that is different than trapiche formations and unlike any other Emerald specimen I have seen before. Another radial group on the backside too.

Large, glassy Euclase crystal with a smaller crystal in the termination. Gorgeous, rich blue color. Though not as gemmy as Columbian Euclase, specimens from this locality have the deepest, most saturated blue color of any Euclase. The mine is long closed and this specimen dates back to at least the 1980s. The front and termination faces are flat and smooth, the left side of main crystal is cleaved.
