Heulandite
Sgurr nam Boc, Isle of Skye, Scotland, UK
25 cm x 10 cm x7 cm

Very large specimen of pink heulandite crystals to 15mm, with a few white stilbite crystals to 20mm. A lucky find - only took me 30 minutes to extract it. Found by crawling under an enormous boulder; it was in another boulder below it. Spent three days breaking rock to find more cavities and only found one more - a smaller cavity - at the end of the third day !
