Epidote Crystal on Quartz Matrix - Mineral Specimen, 3.25 Inch

Epidote on quartz is a classic combination for anyone who collects minerals by species.

This piece is long and slim at about 3.25 inches, with epidote set on a quartz matrix, which suits a narrow shelf, a riker mount display or a specimen box. Epidote is a calcium aluminum iron silicate that usually shows in shades of green, and it often crystallizes in the same veins as quartz, so specimens like this one show the two minerals together just as they grew. It is a good gift for a rockhound, a geology lover or anyone building a reference collection. The specimen pictured is the exact one we will send.

Approximate size is 3.25 by 1 by 1.5 inches. A photo with a ruler is included for scale.
