<B>APOPHYLLITE ON PREHNITE</B></I><BR><BR> <I>Centerville Quarry, Centerville, Augusta County, Virginia</B></I><BR>Rarely seen anymore are specimens of apophyllite from the classic locality of Centerville, Virginia. Although the trade in Indian zeolite specimens has eclipsed virtually all other localities, there are still a few American examples such as this specimen that hold their own when considered against the rest of the world. In this classic example we see a radiating group composed of large, blocky crystals of apophyllite, densely covering the matrix of translucent, pastel-green prehnite; another of the zeolite family. The apophyllite crystals are up to 1 ¾ inches in length while the entire specimen is 3 ¾ x 3 1/8 x 3 inches thick. The luster of the apophyllites goes from 'frosted' to glassy and there are some 'contact' areas along two sides which have little effect on the specimens' worth. An uncommon specimen destined to become rarer.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Requires 3rd Party Shipping (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
