Description

A very aesthetic specimen of a 2.6 cm wide cluster of two intergrown balls of lustrous, bladed, royal-blue cavansite crystals dramatically perched at the top of narrowing, thin crust of drusy quartz peppered with pearlescent stilbite blades and a few scattered, discrete cavansite blades from recent finds at the Wagholi Quarry.
