Item Description

Lane's Quarry is arguably the most famous locality for Babingtonite in the United States, and it's also a source for some fine quality crystallized Prehnites. This two piece set features translucent, good green color aggregates of Prehnite which have formed "finger"-shaped "casts" or perimorphs after prismatic, striated, Anhydrite, which have left hollow cavities inside the Prehnites. Good quality, and attractive when backlit.
