Item Description
Sharp, sparkly translucent, pretty tea-green pectolite balls are aesthetically set in the sculptural matrix. The imposing large ball is 1.6 cm across. The shimmering broken balls on the periphery reveal the radial growth of the acicular pectolite. This famous Trap Rock quarry opened in 1895 and closed in 2007. "The mineralized zone has now been removed, and the pit is currently being refilled with trucked in rock and dirt, for a future housing development." (MINDAT). Classic green pectolite from the locale.
