A large slab of pale green, waxy serpentine banded with many parallel tan veins of cross-fibre asbestos, the fibres standing across each vein and fraying into loose white tufts in places. It looks like the chrysotile of Arizona's serpentine deposits, where the fibre formed in layers within altered limestone. Chrysotile is the serpentine asbestos that made up most commercial use.
