Item Description
Several lustrous, translucent "water"-green color spherical Prehnite aggregates, which are comprised of small, "fan"-like blades sit on matrix. I have not ever seen many specimens from this locality recently, but I think its pretty good just by any worldwide standard for Prehnite aside from the locality value. Better luster than most I have seen from Oficarsa. I have not seen many specimens from this locality recently, but I think its pretty good just by any worldwide standard for prehnite aside from the locality value, and certainly larger than most I have handled.
