Here we have for you a great looking individual cut fragment of a Sahara Desert NWA unclassified meteorite weighing 309.6 grams. Its dimensions are 86x58x52mm. This never classified North West Africa stone was found in the Sahara desert around 2000.

It's a good quality individual fragment NWA meteorite specimen. Some weathering shows the meteorite's time spent aging in the desert. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

Mesolite is a fragile member of the zeolite group and forms almost exclusively in delicate, needle-like crystal habits. Prehnite can form prismatic, tabular, or pyramidal crystals, but usually occurs in botryoidal, reniform, stalactitic, granular, or compact habits. 

It is usually green in colour, but may be white, colourless, yellow, or gray.  Prehnite is transparent to translucent, with a vitreous to pearly luster.  Prehnite forms in cavities in basaltic lavas.

This is a stunning specimen of calcite cubes on mordenite druse.  The crystals are well defined and look beautiful together.

Calcite is found throughout the world in sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous rocks. Some geologists consider it to be a "ubiquitous mineral" - one that is found everywhere. Calcite is the principal constituent of limestone and marble. 

Mordenite was first described in 1864 by Henry How. He named it after the small community of Morden, Nova Scotia, Canada, along the Bay of Fundy, where it was first found.  It is one of the most abundant zeolites and is found in volcanic rock such as rhyolite, andesite, and basalt. It is associated with other zeolites such as stilbite and heulandite.

This is a beautiful combination of Apophyllite, Stilbite and Calcite on Chalcedony Druse. It is a large specimen at over 2 kg and has many double terminated crystals.

Stilbite is a zeolite mineral appreciated for its delicate crystal formations and pastel hues, ranging from colorless to white, yellow, pink, and peach.  It forms distinctive tabular crystals with a bowtie or butterfly shape and exhibits a vitreous to pearly luster. 

One of the distinguishing features of apophyllite is its ability to form well-defined crystals with a pyramid-like shape. These crystals often exhibit a prismatic or pseudo-cubic habit and have a vitreous luster. Apophyllite is transparent to translucent and is commonly found in colorless or white varieties, although it can also occur in shades of green, pink, yellow, or brown.

Chalcedony is a microcrystalline Quartz found in many different colours and patterns.  It has a number of crystals grouped under it many of which are very familiar, including Agate, Carnelian, Chrysoprase, Aventurine, Jasper and Onyx.

Calcite is found throughout the world in sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous rocks. Some geologists consider it to be a "ubiquitous mineral" - one that is found everywhere. Calcite is the principal constituent of limestone and marble. This huge crystal specimen would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.

Gyrolite often forms nodular aggregates that can appear glassy, dull or even fibrous. The aggregate nodules often accompany many fine and rare minerals such as Apophyllite and Okenite plus many of the Zeolites. Looks very nice on Prehnite! Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.

Apophyllite almost always forms good crystals of two major types. The favorite crystal habit is the rectangular prism capped by a steep four sided pyramid. A doubly terminated crystal is exceptionally special. The faces of the pyramids are rotated 45 degrees with respect to the prism faces and so plunge down into the prism edges. This produces a diamond-shaped pyramidal face instead of a typical triangular pyramid face. The shape is an extraordinary example of tetragonal crystal form. Although normally colorless or white, colored examples of apophyllite are always treasured. Some crystals of apophyllite are cut as gems, but are mostly just for the collectors.

Scolecite forms as vertically striated, thin, prismatic crystals.  Scolecite may also occur as radiating fibrous masses.  The colour may be white, yellowish, or colourless.  It is a transparent to translucent mineral, and it has a vitreous to silky luster.

This is an absolutely stunning piece!
