Rare pink Datolite crystals from old, limited finds at the N'Chwanning Mine. The crystals are a well saturated pink color, lustrous with a soft glow similar to Rose Quartz when held near a light source. There is a wonderful small stalactite growth in the center and the bottom is also covered with crystals. Ex. Marshall Sussman personal collection.
