Bright 'citrus' orange Spessartine crystal from famous finds in Tanzania. Most from this locality were partial crystals - this one is crystallized all around. Perfect and undamaged aside from a couple tiny, trivial edge nicks and a couple areas of intergrown Mica. It's all transparent to translucent orange with lots of gem rough. Weighs a hefty 30.01 grams. Valued at $400 due to the amount of gem transparent Spessartine inside.
