| Epidote photo Gallery Page - with probably more epidote crytal photos than you have ever seen in one place! This is epidote from the Green Monster Mine , Prince of Wales, Alaska. These were mined in the 70's by the famous Lee Myers! I ended up with his entire collection when he passed away. I have some for sale at my rock shop just South of Atlanta. The Mineral Gallery (Inside Peachtree Antique Center) 155 Mill Road, McDonough, Ga. 30253 Shown are epidote crystals, clusters of epidote with quartz crystals, and quartz crystals with epidote needle inclusions, and sometimes also byssolite. |

I especially like the terminations on these. A lot of the crystals have a
termination that has a distinct line in the middle with striations that make
a chevron. I believe this shows the internal twinning.

The crystals on the plates are epidote
crystals and quartz crystals with
epidote inclusions that have not been
cleaned yet! (shown still dirty!)

| Many of the quartz crystals would have epidote needles inside as inclusions, and sometimes whole epidote crystals, byssolite and sometimes white phantoms! |
| More examples of Epidote and quartz combo clusters where the quartz crystals has nice 3 dimensional white phantoms inside. The one to the right and the one below are 2 different specimens. |
| This crystal has an unusual green color due to the heavy epidote inclusions. It has a markedly different appearance and color than the crystals that are green due to chlorite inclusions. |
| The Green Monster Mine was notorious for it's Japan Law twin quartz crystals with epidote. Here are a few of mine (now sold though). |
| If 134 photos of epidote crystals is not enough, don't worry - we have more! You can also check out this EPIDOTE & QUARTZ CRYSTAL page |
