MD96D8: Twinned Spinel
The Myanmar Spinels are well known for their quality, color and transparency. We buy quite a few and from time to time we come across the rare cases where the Spinel is a twin. This is the case here, but this time the twin is more complex (crystallographically speaking) than the other ones we see. Unusual.
