Showy specimen of the chromium rich Clinochlore varietal known as Kammererite from the world's best locality for the species. This specimen has numerous larger crystals dispersed across a matrix covered by smaller crystals. The larger crystals reach 7mm in size and are sharp and highly translucent, even transparent in areas. Specimens of this quality are no longer being found and are now hard to come by.
