Description

This is a really neat specimen. It is a narrow vein section filled with natrolite crystals and stilbite blades. The natrolites are  finely crystallized, and with magnification one can see the sharp pyramidal terminations – they sparkle under the lights.Tiny analcime crystals and heulandite crystals in association. In excellent condition, with a couple of contacts and a small area of incomplete natrolite crystals (about halfway down the piece). Stands perfectly for display as photographed. Very nice.
