Forming impressive crystals that have become classics among collectors.  These tall opaque monument like crystals that jut majestically out from their host rocks are simply splendid.  Named after the Norse God of the Sea Aegir.  Aegirine is difficult to distinguish from its close cousin Augite.  Under normal circumstances, the steep pyramids of Aegirine are the only point of differentiation.
