Description:A wonderful example of the classic "Phacolite"-twinned Chabazites from the Maglovec Andesite Quarry in eastern Slovakia. Several sharp, lustrous, porcelian-esque, white colored radial twinned rhombic crystals of Chabazite are sprinkled on the contrasting the contrasting matrix. The largest "Phacolite" group measures 6 mm across. Worthwhile for any collector of this material, and certainly hard to find on the market these days.
