This really well-formed individual orange thumbnail crystal of Chondrodite is from the famous gem-mining district of Pein-Pyit, Mogok Township, Mandalay Region, Myanmar where Spinel is the main focus of attention. Slightly rounded in shape, this lovely Chondrodite crystal displays a wedge-shaped crystal form, with a rich translucent orange colour with internal reflections and a fine resinous lustre. A fine example of this rarely well-crystallized species from one of the best-known occurrences. From the superb systematic collection assembled by brothers Martin and Michael Günther (1951-2007 & 1956-2021).
