Large translucent Prehnite crystals with strong lemon yellow color from recent finds at Merelani. This is a fantastic example with large crystals all over. The back is smooth and flat where it grew against a large Calcite crystal. It's typical of the recent material from Merelani, already some of the world's best Prehnite before these finds, these new ones are better than previous. The front face is perfect with big, lustrous crystals all over. Valued at $300-$400.
