Inter-grown, Crossite included Benitoite Crystals

Benitoite Gem Mine

San Benito County, California

14 mm x 10 mm x 6.6 mm

 

 

Here is something uncommon for the crystal collectors.

Not a twin, but a pair of inter-grown Benitoite crystals.

These crystals are known as "Stoneys" or "Rockys," being that they are crossite included.

Actually, they are more of a pseudomorph, with the benitoite partially replaced by the crossite instead of being actually included.

Sharp, well formed Inter-grown crystals such as this are not often found.
