LARGE single Neptunite crystal on Natrolite with other partial crystals. The Neptunite reaches 4.2cm long which is considered very large for the species. Unfortunately it grew so large that the tip contacted the schist on the other side of the seam it grew in and is therefore not perfect. Regardless, it is a big impressive size crystal and makes for a good specimen. And these will only get rarer with time as the mine is long closed, especially large crystals such as this. Valued at $300.
