LEVYNE, Goble, Oregon, 4 x 4 x 2 cm | |
Here is one of the rarer zeolites. The vesicular basalt has a small vug with large crystal of white Levyne. It is lustrous and undamaged. This is another miniature that I have not seen for sale. But this collection had 3 specimens and a note that the Smithsonian Institute felt these were exceptional specinens. This is the smallest of the three specimens. The other two, I will probably try to get an estimate of the value. This old specimen is from the Gil Griffin (Seattle) collection. |
