Pearly white clusters of Heulandite on matrix from an obscure western USA locality. From Mindat: 'In 1989 Gloria Cook, while leading a field trip with students from the school across from the quarry discovered zeolites in the far east end of the quarry. Collecting was allowed by the owners at that time whose son was one of the students on the field trip. The owner even blasted the zeolite-bearing rock so that more specimens could be collected. The quarry changed owners and collecting is now not allowed'. Old specimen out of the Chuck Trantham collection.
