Natural Stilbite with Heulandite Crystal Cluster – 50 g

This natural Stilbite with Heulandite specimen features a striking pair of large cream-white to pale honey-colored radiating Stilbite aggregates with a distinctive fan-like, flower-shaped growth pattern. The Stilbite crystals display fine natural striations, delicate fibrous textures, and a soft pearly to silky luster. Small white to translucent Heulandite crystal growth occurs around the lower and side portions, adding additional crystal texture and contrast. The symmetrical radiating habit gives this specimen a distinctive natural sculptural appearance.

Geological Note

Stilbite and Heulandite are zeolite-group minerals that commonly occur together in cavities and fractures of volcanic rocks. Stilbite is well known for forming radiating, fan-shaped, sheaf-like, and fibrous aggregates, while Heulandite commonly develops as tabular or bladed crystals. Both 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.
