RNa9 Heulandite-Ca with mordenite, Rat's
Claim, Custer County, Idaho. Heulandite-Ca with minor accessory
Mordenite in two pockets, one on each side of the specimen. The
Heulandite-Ca has a soft, almost two-toned color, grading from a clearish -
white to a wonderful pinkish color in sharp, beautiful crystals. Crystals of
Heulandite-Ca go up almost 4cm and are quite lustrous, catching and flashing in
the light. This specimen is one of 3 such double-pocket, double-sided specimens
and is the second largest geode-like pocket recovered from the Rat's Nest claim.
The front pocket here is very attractive, while the back pocket, a large pocket,
is much less attractive due to a coating of calcite while obscures some
Heulandite-Ca crystals. This specimen displays a long shape very reminiscent of
a peanut.. Measures 45.7 x 16.5 x 28cm. $1250.00
