Natrolite Oisgill Bay, Isle of Skye, Scotland, UK 10cm x 8cm x 4cm Radiating aggregates of natrolite crystals. This was found in a gully around the corner at the north end of Oisgill Bay - on the map this spot is called ’An Ceannaich’. This specimen has been analysed. I went back to the same spot recently and could not find a trace of it; I think it had been buried by rockfall. My recollection is that the natrolite was formed in a vein in the back of the gully. Self-collected 1995. (Author: Mike Wood)
