Chromium Actinolite and Garnet crystals from Wanni Glacier, Binn Valley, Switzerland. 1 unique lot with 24 pieces for mineral collectors.
This lot of 24 specimens features Chromian Actinolite and Garnet, two key minerals of metamorphic rocks, sourced from the Wannigletscher in the Binntal region of Switzerland. There, they formed under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions characteristic of alpine metamorphism, promoting the development of sharp crystal faces and robust aggregates.
Chromian Actinolite, a member of the amphibole group, displays fibrous to prismatic crystal habits. Garnet represents high-temperature silicates, typically forming in octahedral or dodecahedral shapes. Together, they exemplify classic mineral parageneses in regional metamorphic terrains.
Collectors value this selection for its documented Swiss provenance and the careful curation of diverse crystal habits. The specimens’ strong matrix attachment and well-defined growth forms ensure secure handling and make them ideal for systematic collections or high-quality showcase displays.
This product is ideal as a collector's item, decorative element, teaching material, or for scientific and exhibition purposes.
