MTR47CD4: Dolomite crystals, two of them clearly dominant and with very marked rhombohedral forms, rough faces and sharp edges, partially covered by small lustrous, silky-looking Calcite crystals and groups of water-clear doubly terminated Quartz crystals forming parallel groups, and with small crystals of intense green Epidote at the base of the specimen. Very unusual for the locality.
