The deposit known as Dalnegorsk is mined by several different mines. The vast majority of the minerals from Dalnegorsk in various collections have no reference to the individual mines. The mines are the Brenner mine (with the Svetlana adit and Olga adit), Nikolaevsky mine, Zentralnye mine, Verkhnii mine, East Partizan, 1st Sovietsky mine and 2nd Sovietsky Mine. There are probably more mines. The name "Tjetjuche" means "valley of the wild pigs" and is the old Chinese name for Dalnegorsk and this name  can be seen on old mineral labels.

Geologically Dalnegorsk is best described as a skarn, although it is not a pure skarn. Magma came into contact with limestone forming a skarn. But the difference is that metamorphic volcano-sediments are also present and ore bearing. The limestone has an age of carboniferous to jurassic and is covered with upper cretaceous to lower tertiary volcano-sedimentary rocks..

Most ores occur at the contact and in the limestone. The orogenese can be divided into four phases. Non-ore bearing skarn phase with mainly garnet and wollastonite, the skarn sulphide phase, a polymetallic phase and lower temperature final phase with mainly quartz, calcite and zeolites. In the skarn sulphide phase many boron minerals are formed as well as sulphides.  Similar sulphides are formed in the 3rd phase.

This is an incredible specimen of cubic green Apophyllite and Stilbite.  The apophyllite cubes are large and well defined.  It is an incredible specimen.

This combination of Apophyllite and Stilbite supports emotional balance, heart-centered connection, and mental clarity.

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. Commonly found in cavities in volcanic rocks, stilbite is associated with other zeolite minerals. It is valued for its aesthetic appeal and is believed by some to have calming energy, supporting spiritual growth and emotional healing.

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.
