Item Description

A fine quality, and eye-catching radiating aggregate of electric neon blue Cavansite on a narrow stalactite of Stilbite on Heulandite. A very showy piece of this beautiful and often under appreciated material. The best Cavansite specimens in the world come from this locality, and if it wasn't for Wagholi, very few people would even recognize Cavansite as a species. The color is so distinctive, and the species, despite the fact that it's common from India, is exceptionally rare worldwide.
