Tremolite and Dravite Mineral Specimens from West Pierrepont, New York

(also known as the Selleck Road location)

Most of these tremolite mineral specimens are translucent, green in color and associated with white quartz of poor form. The color contrasts are nice and the tremolite's form is good.  The crystals are almost always double terminated and form interesting clusters.  The majority of this material was self collected back in the early 1990's.  These pieces are very good quality for this location. 

Many of our specimens will be labeled actinolite.  Chemical workups have shown this material to be tremolite.  Our labels are incorrect due to errors in published materials.
