Cluster of intergrown blue Benitoite crystals that are almost entirely 'floating' in white Natrolite, along with two pieces of schist matrix also covered with crystals. The Benitoite have top blue color and transparency in the tips. Could be further etched to reveal a nearly complete floater cluster of crystals.
