Item Description

An unusual Scolecite specimen with minor green "Chlorite" from Pakistan, most likely from one of the "Alpine-type" cleft deposits, as similar specimens have been found in the Italian and Austrian Alps. The piece came from a Pakistani dealer who did not have a specific locality for it. The piece features a few attractive radial "sprays" of thin, white prismatic crystals which displays well from several angles. A hard to find Zeolite specimen from this prolific mineral producing region in Pakistan.
