Calcite + stilbite
Biod a’ Mhurain, Duirinish, Isle of Skye, Scotland, UK
The large calcites 29 mm on edge
A beautiful specimen of transparent, slightly etched rhombohedral calcite with some modifications to the corners and edges. The large calcites (to 29mm on edge) rest on a bed of micro stilbite crystals and a few simple calcite rhombs. This is the first specimen I found at this locality; it was exposed to the atmosphere and colourless. The other calcites found within the cavity have a yellowish hue. Self-collected 1996 from Biod a’ Mhurain, Duirinish, Isle of Skye. (Author: Mike Wood)
