I’m leaning towards this being tremolite since it is a member of the amphibole group but I’m not 100% on that identification since it doesn’t really match up to any of the existing specimens in my collection or that I have seen from this region. However based on all the tests I’m able to do on it I would say with 90% accuracy that it is tremolite.
