A great old time Zeolite specimen from this famous locality. There are several lustrous, white trapezohedra of Analcime measuring up to 18 mm associated with tan colored Pectolite in a very attractive little vug of reddish-brown basalt There are also a few Pectolite "casts" after Quartz as well. The specimen is close to 100 years old and is one of the better pieces I've seen for size, quality and associations. 7.5 x 6.0 x 5.3cm
