Comments on Gigapan: Chromian Pargasite, Trinity Alps, California

This is an amphibolite grade metamorphic rock out of one of the ophiolites in the Klamath Mountains in northern California. It's really a very brilliant green due to the chromium content - I'm not sure the camera or lighting fully captures that.
