Outstanding flower-like cluster of yellow Prehnite from a find 2 years ago at the Merelani Tanzanite mines. It has a wonderful, uniform shape with hundreds of sparkling faces glistening in all directions. It has some Graphite inclusions which makes it a bit darker than most, but lights up nicely with color when under the lights. Undamaged specimen with the perfect round, mounded form characteristic of the best of these.
