Titanite

Grenville titanite's are prized amongst local rockhounds and international collectors alike, but due to the tough environments they come from and the brittle nature of the crystals it can be difficult to get good, sharp crystals. Thankfully, this locality is known for producing these superb, lustrous, crystals with razor sharp edges! They appear black or dark brown, but put a light up to one and you'll see they are more of a maroon red colour.  A very sharp crystal, that appears to have been attached to a scapolite crystal, in eons past.
