This is my favorite specimen from our Georgia mineral collections, and one of top 5 favorites overall. This Turgite has a rainbow of exceptionally bright colors & excellent form. It is from the Skittles Pocket, which was a more recent find that 2 of my good friends made at Graves Mtn about 2 years ago.
