Prehnite

Item Description

Prehnites from Prospect Park are well known from New Jersey, as they are some of the most distinctive Prehnites in the world. This piece is a lovely small cabinet sized display specimen featuring beautiful green color radial "balls" of Prehnite on matrix. The color is a bit more or less green depending upon the light in which it is viewed. Under halogen lighting, it shows a lighter hue, but under fluorescent lighting, the green color is stronger. A really cool and eye-catching specimen from this historic discovery at the Prospect Park Quarry. It must be noted that this locality is essentially defunct, and will sadly no longer produce specimens like these.
