9iddbe ((HERSCHELITE, CLINOPTILONITE, HEULANDITE)), $10 MINIMUM BID, Kramer Borate Deposit, Boron, Kern County, California, 2.5 x 2.5 x 1 cm, Thumbnail, | |
These are from the collection of Milton Carahan purchased by Jim Minette. Boron has vuggy basalts filled with all kinds of interesting zeolite species. Many are small needing a loop or even a microscope to properly view. I can see the small coffin shaped Heulandite crystals and believe the colorless crytal is the Herschelite. The Cinoptilonite is micaceous and with my loop not sure which it is. |
