Item Description
Goosecreekite is an ULTRA-RARE zeolite and this SUPERB and VERY SHOWY specimen has two huge ball-like clusters of snow-white goosecreekite crystals on sparkly drusy quartz. The long cluster at 5.1 cm, is a beautiful accent. MUCH BETTER in person, as the very high luster made photography difficult. the dealer label has a $750 price. Ex George Feist Collection # 2311. Superb examples of this species have come out over the last decade, and do not expect it to last forever. Once, such a specimen would have cost an arm and a leg. Later, probably will again.
