Complete 'citrus' orange Spessartine crystal group from old finds in Tanzania. These were mostly found as partial or damaged single crystals with perfect complete clusters crystals such as this much less common. It's hard to say how many crystals comprise the grouping because they have grown close together, but there are at least 12. It's also complete all around and undamaged. Translucent to transparent with good color. There is an attached group of translucent pink Mica attached to one side. Really nice cluster!!!
