Specimen completely covered by lustrous \"root beer\" colored Vesuvianite crystals from a recent find at Alchuri. The crystals are double terminated with the tips of each crystal a lighter color due to a change of the crystal growth to being fibrous. Though internally fibrous, they retain smooth surface luster and smooth, flat terminations. A 1.2cm Clinochlore crystal with other smaller green Clinochlore crystals present, size 3.5 x 2.2 x 1.7 cm.
