Item Description

Pectolite is the calcium analogue of famous orange serandite, members of the Wollastonite Group. Some of the finest examples of the species came from early 1970s finds at the famed Jeffrey Mine, and this is an outstanding miniature example. Intergrown clusters of pretty pastel-green, lustrous, translucent parallel-growth terminated blades form a very aesthetic and sculptural 360-degree specimen. Classic and choice pectolite from the Charlie Key Collection.
