A superb lustrous crystal specimen of Axinite-(Mn) from the recent find (2015) in the Canta area in Peru. The specimen we have from the find displays excellent long clove-brown triclinic crystals measuring to 4cm, translucent-opaque to gemmy on the edges on an Andradite matrix. Associated with lustrous olive green Epidote. A very pleasing specimen of Axinite-(Mn).
