Description
An excellent and uncommon combination specimen from Sidi Ayed of Boulemane Caïdat, Morocco. A large vug is lined with sharp lustrous, jet-black crystals of Schorlomite. The textabook, dodechedral crystals reach 1.1 cm. Schorlomite is a RARE Garnet group member and much of the material labeled "schorlomite" is, strictly speaking, titanian Andradite. Excellent, highly representative material of the species and locale.
