A large stack of well formed Datolite crystals with an attractive light mint color. The specimen is in excellent condition on all sides with the exception of the bottom (all of the pictures were taken with the specimen free standing although it has a bit of a lean and would be best displayed with a prop under one edge or a stand). The surfaces have a glassy luster. There are also white colored Quartz crystals poking out from the cluster. A superb example of the species. The color is a bit more attractive than in the pictures.

Condition: Very Good

Flaws: Nothing Appreciable
