HEULANDITE-(Ca)

Teigarhorn, Berufjörður, Djúpavogshreppur, Múlaþing, Iceland

SPECIMEN DESCRIPTION

A rarely seen Heulandite-(Ca) from the classic old-time Icelandic locality of Teigarhorn, collected long before the Indian zeolites appeared on the market. Miniature in size, it features a fine aggregate of classic fish-tail, triangular, white, pearlescent Heulandite crystals which reach over 2 cm in length. There is slight weathering to the surface of the specimen, presumably before it was collected, but the crystals are nicely formed and excellent for this somewhat forgotten classic site. Ex David Hardman collection.
