rrareearthh:Garnets! Little tiny (½ mm) crystals on what I believe is epidote alongside stilbite and other needly looking zeolites from a skarn outcrop in Washington state not far from Vancouver. The chunk of matrix is about a handful. Love the colors from these initially drab looking rocks. There is also native copper and other copper related minerals that occur at this locality, though I didn’t end up getting much because there were some men with guns eager to get back to shooting rocks, apparently. With @pnw_rocktography (let me know if I got any of this wrong!) @passthebinger and @pigeonmasterlefou666 a few months ago. #garnet #garnets #rocks #rockhounding #washington #rock #agates #silica #quartz #mineral #minerals #geology #stone #stones #crystal #crystals #rockhound #epidote #copper #zeolites #micominerals #microphotography. #stilbite (at Carnelian Coffee)https://www.instagram.com/p/BvXY7YiBdn8/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=6l1odd2stl76 -- source link
