Prehnite - sharply crystalized
Jeffrey Mine, Asbestos (now Val-des-Sources, Estrie,
Quebec, Canada
2.9 x 1.8 x 1.7 CM (small miniature/ large thumbnail (toenail))
price: $330
Spring 2017
A textbook form presented in a cluster of sharp crystals. Well-crystallized prismatic Prehnite is quite rare and the best in the world are from old finds at the Jeffrey Mine. This specimen is perfect by naked eye with only very tiny contacts and chipping found with 10X magnification. A delicate pale green that looks almost white in some light, this is just a whisker too large to be a thumbnail but could be trimmed to fit if desired. No stains or encrustations, just lustrous bright Prehnite.
