A rare find from Burma; Here you get a bipyramidal and terminated Pargasite crystal. One side discloses a basal pinacoid, while the other is irregular terminated but not broken. The color is a yellow or green due to the strong pleochroism. A rarity from Burma, which was in former times sold as norbergite.
