Very nice specimens! Would the green crystals in a white matrix not be spheen? Ita green & blade like, yes?
*sphene
...but I'd like to agree ....even titanite can be that greenish colour.. and indeed that is the "same" mineral
@@sandyroo1980 ha... slightly better than the auto-correct ...or in the case of FB and the like where they offer "translations" that just make no sense 😛
Tat would be awesome but i didn't hear of finding them in this location, maybe is a first, there is a lot of brown titanite though.
I kinda disagree with the first specimen being zircon... at least from the video... the shape isn't quite right. To me it's more the shape of a titanite/sphene
...ah... an also... I did give another comment... but forgot... self collected pieces always have a special place for me :-)
P.S. not sure about your camera, but my autofocus has trouble if there is more around it... so perhaps if you hold the piece in your palm, and make sure the surrounding area is "smaller" and then it will focus
oh... and not sure if you're aware of a couple of others in your area, "meMiner", and "Off The Beaten Path Crystals" and "Caver461" (all on youtube and all seem like really nice peeps)
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder! 😛
...but most of us collectors can agree on a specimen being of a higher quality, if it lacks "Wilburs", it has good lustre, colour is a great addition, well formed etc
