Natural Stilbite with Heulandite Crystal Cluster – 160 g

This natural Stilbite with Heulandite specimen features large cream to pale honey-colored Stilbite aggregates with distinctive fan-like and radiating crystal growth. The Stilbite displays fine natural striations, delicate fibrous textures, and a soft pearly luster. Numerous white to translucent Heulandite crystals are intergrown across the specimen, creating a strong contrast between the warm cream-colored Stilbite and brighter white crystal formations. The combination of large radiating Stilbite growth and associated Heulandite gives this specimen a distinctive sculptural appearance.

Geological Note

Stilbite and Heulandite are zeolite-group minerals commonly found together in cavities and fractures of volcanic rocks. Stilbite frequently forms fan-shaped, radiating, sheaf-like, or fibrous aggregates, while Heulandite commonly develops as tabular or bladed crystals. These minerals form from mineral-rich hydrothermal fluids circulating through cavities and fractures in volcanic rocks 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.
