Summary

Description
English: Sillimanite
Locality: Orissa, India (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: thumbnail, 2.7 x 2.1 x 0.9 cm
Sillimanite (huge gem xl)
Charlie was very impressed with this rare gem crystal of sillimanite, which he told me was the best he had seen, for combination of size and form. I cannot argue, as I have never seen but rounded pebbles of this material, from Mogok and not from India. The crystal is a little bit like a floppy wizards hat in form, but it is translucent and 3-dimensional, and actually displays quite well. I am inclined to fully trust Charlie about its significance in the absence of anything to compare it to out there.
