An excellent rich cabinet specimen of Andradite Garnet displaying abundantly intergrown crystals measuring to 8 mm and displaying typical milky chocolate beige faces with their edges delineated by dark chocolate brown.

This island is known for its skarn mineralisation, with these Andradite Garnet groups probably being its most iconic species.
