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 pink color Heulandite, which is not common for the species, especially from New Jersey. The crystals are extremely attractive with excellent luster and great form. The Heulandites are assocaited with white Laumontite for a nice touch. You don't see many specimens of this material on the market these days, ESPECIALLY with pink color. The color is better than most Indian Heulandites you'll find on the market. A nice display specimen from this historic east coast locality.
