Apophyllite on Copper-included Prehnite (ex Obodda)

Item Description

Here we have a really attractive cabinet association specimen from one of the most historic and classic mining districts in the United States. This is a gorgeous, well crystallized specimen featuring sparkling, colorless, pseudo-cubic (compressed tetragonal prisms) of gemmy Apophyllite sitting atop velvety, coppery-pink colored Prehnite which gets its unique hue from native Copper inclusions! Virtually no damage, very showy and just pretty. These specimens are becoming more and more difficult to find on the market today, and this is a very nice display specimen of this highly sought after material from Michigan. Ex Herb Obodda specimen. Valued at $1600.
