Item Description

An impressive and pristine spiky white thomsonite 'ball' from this less well-known Jalgaon locale. The ball rests on pearlescent stilbite blades with the small protruding "tail" being a super accent. This Zeolite Group species is RARE from Jalgaon, compared to more familiar species, such as stilbite or apophyllite. This combination is also rare from this locale. An outstanding combination example of the uncommon species and locale.
