Undamaged cluster of curving, translucent Prehnite crystals from the Merelani Tanzanite mines. These blue Prehnite are much less common than the yellow Prehnite and also display an interesting color change showing a different hue of blue between incandescent lighting and natural sunlight. A fine example of this type with some attached Graphite on the backside.
