Prehnite on Epidote
Djouga diggings, Bendougou, Diakon Commune, Bafoulabé Cercle, Kayes Region, Mali
Dimensions: 2.7 x 1.8 x 1.5 cm
A striking thumbnail specimen from the Djouga diggings of Mali, featuring a nearly spherical aggregate of pale green Prehnite perched dramatically on a cluster of dark Epidote crystals.
The Prehnite forms a prominent rounded aggregate with delicate celadon to pale yellow-green coloration and good translucency. Fine radiating growth textures are visible across its surface, while small areas of natural iron staining add warm orange-brown accents. The Epidote displays strong longitudinal growth lines and reflective crystal faces, creating a dramatic contrast of rounded versus prismatic form, pale versus dark color, and soft translucency versus metallic-looking luster.
The clean composition— with one dominant Prehnite sphere positioned at the end of the Epidote group— makes this a particularly attractive example of the classic Mali association.
