Vesuvianite - Jeffrey Mine, Quebec, Canada

Nice Vesuvianite specimen from the long-closed Jeffrey Mine, a former asbestos quarry in Val-des-Sources, Estrie, Quebec, Canada. Once a prolific source of Garnet, Vesuvianite, and other minerals, specimen mining has not occurred here since 2001!

This is a floater specimen of doubly-terminated crystals!
