A free-standing cabinet specimen from Nashik with a well-terminated, pale yellow-green powellite crystal set in the center of a bowl of cream heulandite and stilbite crystals. Crystal definition is sharp, and the arrangement is balanced from the main viewing side.

Powellite, a calcium molybdate, is one of the scarcer minerals of the Indian basalts and is prized for its bright fluorescence under ultraviolet light. Here it is paired with heulandite and stilbite, two classic Deccan zeolites, which frame the powellite.

A good example for collectors of rare Indian species or fluorescent minerals.
