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 lovely "water green" color crystals of Datolite. The crystals have good form along with decent gemminess in areas. One does not see Datolite of this quality from many localities. A worthwhile small "hand" sized specimen. A good example of this classic Trap Rock material.
