Stilbite

Item Description

An attractive full coverage of spherical bladed aggregates of prismatic, sparkly translucent, orangish-brown stilbite crystals on matrix from this famous locale in Sweden. This piece is an excellent example of this classic and hard to find material. This locality is very well known in Sweden, and ore body stretches for miles according to a geological map found on MINDAT.org for the locality. The one broken botryoid reveals the nifty radial growth of the crystals.
