Large toothy crystals of translucent to transparent yellow Prehnite with small crystals of attached Pyrite. Merelani Prehnite is among the best in the world, and specimens from recent finds such as this are among the best ever found at the locality. Solid Prehnite with large crystals all around (both sides). Though there are some Graphite inclusions in areas, it more than makes up for it in structure and great crystal form. Rosette, flower-like cluster crystallized all around. In great condition with just a few areas of damaged crystals.
