A large cluster of blue benitoites on white natrolite with minor neptunite. Largest benitoite is 2.2 cm on edge, and the benitoites fluoresce orange under UV light. The benitoites are semi-lustrous and show some fracturing but are undamaged. A great cabinet specimen from the best locality for the species.
