An interesting stalactic formation of Quartz rises above a plate of Quartz both of which are coated with a fine druze of Quartz crystals. The Quartz is snow white in color and has a lot of sparkle. Attached to the stalactic formation are thin, platy crystals of Stilbite which range in color from clear to white with a slight pink/orange tint in places. Although the label reads Stilbite, there is a strong possibility the much rarer Barrerite is present. The specimen is in good condition but some of the Stilbite/Barrerite crystals are incomplete.
