Apophyllite + Quartz
Sgurr nam Boc, Isle of Skye, Scotland, UK
Vug is approx. 15cm x 10cm
Pinacoidal terminated apophyllite crystals to approx. 13mm sprinkled on a layer of blueish quartz. A few small stilbite crystals can also be seen. This material is identical to specimens I have seen in the Heddle Collection in the National Museum of Scotland, Edinburgh.
I have never bothered to extract it as it is in the side of a very large boulder consisting of extremely hard basalt.
