A beautiful prehnite-epidote specimen with a sculptural display from Bendougou village, Kayes Region, Mali. Very dark olive green epidote crystals are decorated with splendid prehnite balls. Epidote crystals are prismatic and lustrous. The prehnite spheres are well isolated, complete all over, with a light green color. The quality of the piece is very good. It displays aesthetically all over 360 degree. For references see the 2011 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 41, # 3. In very good condition – some small contacts. On acrylic base.
Wonderful!
