“The Comet”
Oxidized euhedral pyroxene crystals in ashy groundmass of volcanic tuff. Explosive volcanic eruption likely caused the two pyroxene grains to smash together, causing this comet and tail-like shape.
Maybe my eyes are playing tricks on me but the angles in that crystal look an awful lot like 60 degree angles – I think that looks a lot like an amphibole.
