Rutile (sagenite pseudomorphs after ilmenite) – Arzo ridge, Ticino, Switzerland
Rutil (var. Sagenite) pseudomorphing Ilmenite
Arzo ridge, Robiei, Val Bavona, Ticino, Switzerland
 
Straw yellow to bronze-coloured Rutile as reticular „Sagenite“ on milky white Albite (showing Pericline habit), with dark green Clinochlore and silvery Muscovite blades on graphitic mica schist. This Rutile replaced a former Ilmenite plate in the base portion of the large Kyanite-quartz/Clinochlore fissure No.201 on the Arzo ridge. In August and September 2022, this vein provided particularly attractive Sagenite specimens (cf. LAPIS 2/2023)
