These emerald crystals will not be winning any awards or cutting fine stones, but - they are from AUSTRIA, so the specimen is significant as a locality piece! They actually are rather gemmy, in fact, even if slightly encrusted with the matrix schist. The longest one is 2 cm, and there are two smaller ones on the edge of the specimen. An old specimen, and hard to obtain!
