Description

Vacuolar basalt featuring several vugs mostly mineralised with elongated colorless to white natrolite, occasionally associated to minimal analcime (white to pale pink).
Once a classic among Italian connoisseur collectors, this volcanites locale has produced a limited amount of aesthetically pleasing zeolites for a few decades. 
Clearly a connoisseur specimen, pre-2005 and pretty hard to come by material.
