Calcite + stilbite Camas na h-Uamha (Bay of Caves), Duirinish, Isle of Skye, Scotland, UK Specimen is 75 mm wide and 55 mm high. This specimen is from a different locality, though again it was in a vein cavity in basalt. There are THREE different forms of calcite here, though only two are represented on this specimen. The earlier scalenohedral calcites are coated with micro-crystallised stilbite, with simple later calcite rhombs on top; a rather beautiful combination. Specimen is 75mm wide and 55mm high. By the way, that calcite scalenohedron near the bottom left that sticks out leftwards - is stuck back on - in this case it was probably an unnecessary repair! Self-collected 1998 from Camas na h-Uamha (Bay of Caves), Duirinish, Isle of Skye. (Author: Mike Wood)
