Detailed Description Groups of radiating mesolite crystals on laumontite, with the main one centred at the top (I’d support this to stand for display as photographed). There are lots of mesolite crystals on this specimen and many more visible with magnification. Although some of the laumontite crystals are shot through with mesolite crystals, the laumontite […]

Detailed Description This specimen can be displayed in a couple of ways and looks great in either orientation. Standing up, the aggregates of radiating mesolite crystals are dynamic. Sitting down, it is truly reminiscent of group of mesolite mountains on a laumontite landscape. Most of the laumontite crystals are intergrown with mesolite needles. In excellent […]

Detailed Description Conical groups of mesolite crystals standing up on laumontite crystals. Under magnification, one can see that many of laumontite crystals are associated and intergrown with mesolite crystals, although there are also nice sharp laumontites without penetrating mesolite crystals. In excellent condition. A fine specimen from the 2021 pocket. About the Minerals of the […]

Detailed Description A nice group of radiating mesolite crystals (approx 1.3 cm across) on laumontite. This one is different from most in the find, as some of the mesolite crystals in the group are separated from one another rather than packed solid. There are other groups of radiating mesolite around the specimen, including on the […]
