EPIDOTE

These specimens show us rich groups of epidote crystals, some of them in a very aerial disposition and with a good size. Crystalline aggregates are formed by parallel growths, with developed faces of different orders monoclinic prisms and pinacoidal facets. The edges are very sharp. Intense green color, some translucence on edges, exceptional brilliance and a more than remarkable aesthetics. A novelty coming from this Peruvian locality, not well-known until now. The main crystal is: 6,7 x 5,6 x 4,3 cm.
