Ettringite, Hausmannite and Andradite

The Pastel Yellow of the Ettringite reminds me of a ice-cold Lemonade.
These gorgeous Ettringite crystals have developed on a gleaming beige to slightly red Andradite crystal matrix.
To add more of a wow factor to this rare specimen you can find Highly Metallic, opaque, triangles of Hausmannite too!

The Geological Approach: 
  • Sub-metallic, opaque, dark grey to black, tetragonal Hausmannite.
  • Growth patterning on the Hausmannite crystal surface.
  • Vitreous, opaque, light brown, isometric Andradite.
  • Andradite crystals have developed on the Hausmannite and in small vugs of the specimen.
  • Pearly, sub-opaque, light yellow Ettringite crystals have developed on the Andradite surface
