Title: Ilmenite with Andradite and Chloritic Quartz

A grody little hand specimen from maybe Canada? I washed it but kept a small amount of dirt on the specimen in case that's the clincher in ID-ing it. Could be from Pakistan.

I see you've been busy finding new rock to work with.
This looks promising, I would say cut this open, slab her up!

Absolutely! I wonder about it falling apart, but there's only one way to find out!
