Rich specimen of gemmy Serandite crystals over Catapleiite pseudomorph after Sodalite, with Epididymite and Manganoneptunite from the famous Poudrette quarry, Mont Saint-Hilaire, Quebec, Canada. The Serandite cubic crystals are very well crystallized with classic rich salmon-pink color and good luster. They are gemmy. Tan Catapleiite pseudomorph after Sodalite forms the base. Moreover, the piece has contrast given by the association of white hexagonal crystals of Epididymite. Some very small Manganoneptunite crystals are seen too. Displays attractively all over 360 degree. Ref: The Mineralogical Record, 21, 332-333. In very good condition – some small contacts. On acrylic base.

Splendid!
