Item Description

An impressive, LARGE CABINET, jackstraw cluster of lustrous, translucent, very light sea-green, prehnite pseudomorphing laumontite stalks from the famous Malad quarries near Bombay. Scattered, very hard to see, glassy, colorless, elongated cubic apophyllite crystals to 2.5 cm are a fine accent. This is an excellent large prehnite pseudo after laumontite from this extinct locale. The quarries were closed due to population growth some years ago. Ex Bill Moller Collection. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!
