A loose grouping of gemmy deep green terminated clinozoisite crystals. In great condition. Choice thumbnail for the species and locality.Belvidere Mountain features complex geology dominated by serpentinized ultramafic rocks and rodingite dikes embedded within the northern Green Mountains, famous for hosting extensive chrysotile asbestos deposits alongside secondary minerals like grossular garnet. Commercial mining began in the late 1800s and expanded through multiple operations including the Lowell and Eden quarries, eventually becoming the second largest asbestos producer in the United States before industrial activities permanently ceased in 1993. Today, the site is recognized historically for its industrial legacy and mineral collecting opportunities in the waste dumps for fine-quality hessonite garnets and associated species.
