A mostly loose lustrous translucent yellowish green crystal of titanite. In good condition with minimal micro-damage present.The Entia Valley, located on Ambalindum Station within the Harts Range of the Northern Territory, Australia, has a history of mica and gemstone prospecting that began earnestly in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, with significant commercial mica mining peaking around the Second World War. Geologically, the area is part of the Arunta Inlier, consisting of high-grade metamorphic rocks that underwent complex Proterozoic tectonism and were subsequently intruded by large pegmatite dikes. Mineralogically, these pegmatites and metamorphic formations are renowned for yielding exceptional mineral specimens, including large sheet mica, beryl, garnet, and rare-element minerals that continue to attract geologists and mineral collectors.
