The bottom side of this specimen features albite crystals, to 1.5 cm in length, that are totally covered by silvery gray chlorite. The other side features pearlescent, white glassy and gemmy crystals of albite, to 1 cm in length. It appears that the two largest, and upright crystals are also twinned down the center of their long axes. Eerily beautiful, and although with small crystals this is quite representative of this unique, small find
