A compact cluster of very dark, blocky marshy apophyllite crystals from Nashik, deep green to nearly black, dotted with small white and pale pink heulandite clusters. The light heulandite stands out crisply against the dark crystals.
Marshy apophyllite gets its color from inclusions of celadonite, a green mica-group mineral common in the Deccan basalts. Crystals this dark are less common than the usual mossy green, and the effect is quite different from clear or bright green apophyllite.
A striking small-cabinet example of marshy apophyllite with heulandite.
