Natrolite + Laumontite Sgurr nam Fiadh, Isle of Skye, Scotland, UK 8 cm x 8 cm x 4 cm Natrolite or mesolite crystals to 12 mm on white crystals that used to be laumontite, but have most likely dehydrated as the specimen has been stored dry. I have had similar material tested from this locality and it proved to be natrolite - courtesy of Alan Dyer - but not this same material. This locality is 5km south of Talisker Bay and - you guessed it - very difficult to access ! Self-collected 2006. Self-collected 2004. (Author: Mike Wood)
