Superb example of Epidote that has replaced Andradite. This was originally a large Anadradite compound crystal and is now mostly Epidote. Most of the Epidote follows the same structure of the Garnet, however some has formed typical prismatic crystal form. There is also Quartz after Andradite present along with Quartz crystals. The highlight is the 1.2cm nearly complete Epidote after Andradite crystal.
