Description:The now closed Millington Quarry is over 100 years old (it opened in 1895). Starting in the late 1970's the quarry reopened and started producing a large number of some of the most interesting and beloved specimens from this incredible Trap Rock quarry. This is one of the most famous Trap Rock quarries in New Jersey and it perhaps its greatest claim to fame are its spectacular Pectolite specimens. This particular pieces hosts several soft greenish-yellow color radiating spherical aggregates of Pectolite measuring up to 2.1 cm which are arranged in a beautiful crystallized vug. Now that the mineralized zone at Millington is finished, you will not see any more of these beautiful specimens on the market anymore. A great Trap Rock display specimen from this significant New Jersey locality.
