Golden colored Topazolite crystals and large books of green Clinochlore on matrix. Sort of reverse of most of these - instead of isolated Topazolite crystals on drusy Clinochlore, you have large distinct Clinochlore atop drusy Topazolite. Found near the Benitoite Gem Mine. Ex. Chuck Trantham collection, collected by Chuck and Al McGuinness in May 1983. Valued at $150.
