Description
This is a cluster of glassy, lustrous pale link gmelinite crystals to 1.4 cm, with evident twinning. Brilliant triangular growth patterns. In excellent condition, there is a missing crystal in the group, not easy to discern, and some contacting around th periphery in spots. This is an attractive gmelinite miniature.
From the collection of well-known Nova Scotia collector Terry Collett, this specimen was collected in 2003.
