35035: Prehnite epimorph after Laumontite
- $8 Pune District, Pune Division, Maharashtra, India Thumbnail - 2.7 x 2.5 x 2.5 cm 7.4 grams including stand Specimen status: Available Send an email with specimen number to order This specimen began as a 'stick' of
laumontite, which became coated with white, crystalline
prehnite. The laumontite subsequently dissolved or
otherwise disappeared, leaving a distinct cast of prehnite
retaining the shape of the original laumontite (i.e. an
epimorph, which is a type of pseudomorph). Excellent
condition. As mounted on its black acrylic base
it fits into a standard
thumbnail 'Perkie' box. Easily dismounted if desired
because, for example, you'd rather mount it on a clear, colorless
acrylic base...?
