Item Description

The famous Prospect Park Quarry is one of the most impressive (and under appreciated) Zeolite localities in the world. This quarry has produced some amazing specimens in the last 100 years. This specimen features several sharp, lustrous, gemmy, hexagonal crystals of Quartz which range in hue from a pale smoky color to a soft "amethystine" tone. This locality is now finished and will never produce specimens again, so don't miss out on any pieces from this famous quarry while they're still available.
