Epidote

Epidote is admired for its deep green to brownish-green crystals, which often form elongated prismatic shapes with a bright luster. The specimens in this collection originate from Pakistan, where well-developed crystals are notable for their sharp form and aesthetic appeal. Beyond Pakistan, epidote is also found in notable localities such as Austria, Italy, Russia, and the United States, often occurring in alpine clefts and metamorphic environments. With its rich color, distinctive crystal habits, and worldwide presence, epidote remains a classic and desirable addition to fine mineral collections.
