Item Description
Strontiojoaquinite is an ultra rare hydrated very complex silicate and this excellent and RARE combination is from the Type Locality area. Analcime specimens are VERY RARE from this less well-known mine and here we have a nifty 3 mm, V-shaped pair of yellow strontiojoaquinite crystals adroitly perched atop a cluster of sharp intergrown analcime crystals. Collected by Scott Kleine in 1998. A MUST for the locality or species collector.
