RM1342   Albite with quartz, epidote, actinolite and magnetite

Large group of prismatic crystals of albite, well defined, beige color and interpenetrating each other. They're accompanied by numerous aggregates of prismatic crystals of epidote, fibrous actinolite and smoky quartz crystals. Highlights small magnetite octahedral crystals those are placed in the cavities of the specimen. They were sold as orthoclase but a recent XRD analysis I have done indicates that it is albite (2/15/2024). Maybe more interesting. 2s2660
