Description
Beautiful specimen of green Diopside on snow-white Calcite. This was originally in my father's exhibition, but due to lack of space I am putting it up for sale.
The first 3 pictures are taken with extra light to exposte the crystals/colors, while the last 4 pictures are taken in normal daylight.
Bumannsfjorden, Seiland, Finnmark, Norway
Most of the year the field where the minerals are found is covered with ice and snow, and today this area is now a part of the Seiland National Park, and collecting from this area is now strictly forbidden. So not only is this a rare material but also it will not be collected more of it.
This specimen was found in the late 1980's by my father, Gunnar Mathisen.
