Garnet Var. Hessonite - Jeffrey Mine, Asbestos, Canada
 
Garnet crystals up to 9mm in size with perfect luster and transparency on matrix from the Jeffrey Mine, Asbestos in Canada. The specimen is richly decorated with intensely colored Hessonites.
Finds from the Jeffrey Mine are no longer possible today because the mine has been recultivated. For this reason, this is a rare, historical and sought-after collector specimen.
