In this sample we can observe a large group of prismatic crystals, acicular, bright, with a dark violet to lavender color. The original description of this piece referred to a mineral from the amphibole supergroup called "crossite". This species is currently discredited and it is an intermediate between riebeckite and glaucophane groups. The specimens from this Austrian locality are very characteristic. 1y6f4k
Defined beryl (var. emerald) crystal in a matrix micasquist. The color, transparency and luminosity of beryl are quite good. It shows a defined prism with top pinacoidal faces. The specimen is significant as a locality piece.
