Deep orange semi lustrous slightly translucent pseudo-cubic crystals of chabazite 1.5 cm in size covering matrix. In good condition. The specimen comes with a previous label from the collection of Ray DeMark.Wasson Bluff and the nearby Two Islands in Cumberland County, Nova Scotia, feature a dramatic geological setting formed during the breakup of the supercontinent Pangea in the Mesozoic era, characterized by massive basalt lava flows, faulting, and sedimentary layers. The area has a rich history centered on scientific exploration, fossil discovery, and mineral collecting rather than heavy industrial mining, drawing global attention for its early dinosaur remains. The basalts and fault zones of these coastal cliffs are especially famous for hosting a diverse array of secondary cavity-filling minerals, including notable specimens of zeolites such as chabazite, stilbite, and analcime that crystallized from mineral-rich fluids.
