Item Description

Thomsonite and prehnite combinations are RARE from this famous and extinct New Jersey Trap Rock quarry. Pretty corsage-like bladed thomsonite clusters are aesthetically set atop the mounded matrix of classic rounded aggregates of juicy, translucent, bladed mint-green prehnite. The broken base reveals a nice bonus, showing the prehnite casts after sharp anhydrite blades. A very fine and rare Prospect Park combination.
