Repost from last year: A titanite lozenge imaged both using a cellphone through the microscope ocular, and with a proper imaging system. It's surrounded mostly by quartz (+feldspar).
Likely from the Grenville, but from a teaching collection two generations of retired professors ago.

Titanite can be part of the record of temperature, pressure, and timing of crystallization.
