Description:From the great find in late 2007, these are simply some of the finest color Chabazite specimens from any locality. Chabazite is typically white or off-white in color, but to find rich color crystals like this is very significant. The pseudo-rhombohedral (they''re actually triclinic) crystals on this specimen are a rich salmon color with very sharp faces, excellent luster and are aesthetically intergrown with beige Helandite and white Calcite to form what is an overall beautiful display piece. The largest Chabazite "rhomb" measures 1.7 cm. I cannot say for certain which species of Chabazite this may be, but my best assumption would be Chabazite-Ca. For the quality, color and great visual appeal, this is a top notch large miniature/small cabinet display specimen of this Zeolite species that often occurs in typically less than colorful crystals.
