Incredible specimen of two tabular (pseudohexagonal) Epidote crystals, as penetration twins with beautiful symmetry. Extremely rare, and one of the finest specimens out of a $9,000 lot, found in 2011. See this link for a picture of the magnetite distribution as inclusions in Titanites on the surface, resulting in magnetic epidote crystals. https://www.mindat.org/article.php/1770/Epidote+from+the+Zard+Mountains%2C+Kharan%2C+Balochistan%2C+Pakistan
