Grossular Garnet var Hessonite Crystal | 5.5 Gr | Cinnamon Stone | Closed Jeffrey Mine | Asbestos, Québec
$140.00 CAD
Unit price per1 low in stock
This amazing specimen of Grossular Garnet was collected in the now closed Jeffery Mine in Asbestos, Québec, Canada. This is an extremely elegant and classic cinnamon colored garnet from this locale.
The Jeffrey Mine is well-regarded among mineral collectors for its grossular garnet specimens, particularly the rich orange (“hessonite”) crystals it produced during its active years. The mine’s grossular garnets are often described as some of the most distinctive and desirable in the world because of their strong, honey-orange to peach color, good transparency, sharp crystal form, and glassy luster — qualities that make them stand out compared to grossular from many other localities.
Today the mine is closed and flooded, so material comes from historic finds and old stock, adding to both rarity and appeal.
This beautiful specimen is in very good condition and will come protected in a Perky Box . A great addition to any collection!
