Green Titanite crystals.
When large concentrations of titanite are found, they are used as a source of titanium and as a colorant in paints.
However, as it is a scarce mineral, it lacks industrial value. He has scientific and jewelry interest.
The mineral includes a label with the name and origin and is attached to a cardboard box. 4 cm square.

Since the minerals are natural, you will receive a piece similar to the one in the photograph. The minerals come in cardboard boxes and are glued to a porex base with hot silicone; these can be removed using ethyl alcohol without damaging the mineral. The size is approximate.
