Item Description

The Braen's Quarry in New Jersey has been a seldom collected quarry for years, but has been a source of excellent Zeolite specimens and associated species. This piece features no Zeolites, but it hosts sharp, lovely "water green" color crystals of Datolite on matrix. The crystals have good form and virtually no damaage except for the periphery. A worthwhile small cabinet sized specimen. A good example of this classic Trap Rock material.
