Heulandite and Stilbite are zeolite-group minerals that commonly occur together in cavities and fractures of volcanic rocks. Heulandite typically forms tabular or bladed crystals, while Stilbite commonly develops as radiating, fibrous, sheaf-like, or compact aggregates. Both minerals form from mineral-rich hydrothermal fluids circulating through volcanic rock cavities over geological time.
Please Note: Natural mineral specimens may naturally contain variations in color, crystal formation, transparency, texture, inclusions, fractures, cavities, chips, luster, and matrix. Each specimen is naturally formed and may differ slightly from the photographed piece.
