Good sized single 'citrus' orange Spessartine crystal from old finds in Tanzania. These were mostly found as partial or damaged crystals with complete crystals such as this much less common. There is one area of irregular rough surface that grew against mica and a couple areas of included mica, but importantly, there are no black inclusions and it is a bright orange color all around.
