A rounded basalt geode from Nashik with a rich brown-orange heulandite lining and several small white scolecite sprays fanning out from the cavity walls. Damage is virtually absent, and the dark rind frames the warm interior.

Heulandite forms blocky, coffin-shaped crystals with a pearly luster, while scolecite grows as fine white needles. The contrast between the two makes this one of the most popular zeolite pairings from Maharashtra.

A solid cabinet geode at 665 g.
