Stilbite on Heulandite

Aurangabad, India - 11.5x6x4.5 cm

This is a very aesthetic specimen of Stilbite, constituted by an awesome, isolated and doubly terminated crystal, 8.5 cm tall, vertically placed on a small matrix with many elements of Heulandite. The crystal exhibits a clear and bright colour and is absolutely free of any damage. Really an excellent specimen of this common zeolite coming from India. I purchased it through an auction on the e-bay site of Gargoti Minerals, in 2010.
