Item Description
This Trap Rock locality is one of the most impressive (and under appreciated) localities in the world. This quarry has produced some amazing specimens in the last 100 years. This specimen features some great pink color Heulandite (especially for New Jersey). The crystals are extremely attractive with excellent luster and great form. To top it off, the Heulandites are assocaited with attractive rhombohedra of Calcite sitting on gemmy Quartz crystal on basalt matrix. You don't see many specimens of this material on the market these days, ESPECIALLY with this great pink color. The color is better than most Indian Heulandites you'll find on the market. A great display specimen from this historic east coast locality.
