Stilbite Crystals on matrix - Height: 120 mm - Width: 80 mm- 872 g - (4)

Stilbite is a member of the zeolite group characterized by its sheaf-like or bow-tie clusters of tabular crystals which commonly show a pearly luster. Stilbite crystals typically form in cavities within basaltic lava, growing from hydrothermal solutions. Their colors range from colorless to shades of white, pink, or peach. This zeolite is valued by collectors for its aesthetic radiating sprays and clear crystal forms. A specimen with dimensions around 120 mm by 80 mm and weighing 872 g would present a delightful display of stilbite's distinct crystal habit, offering insight into zeolite mineralogy and the secondary mineral environments where they form.
