A very fine example of this rare species from MSH, consisting of sharp parallel crystals to 1.4 cm in a cluster atop contrasting matrix of pectolite. The Monteregianite has excellent waxy luster for the species, and the crystals are of a size that would have to be considered exceptional and difficult to obtain in such form. 4 x 3 x 2 cm
