Chabazite from Verona

Chabazite-Ca from Fittà in the Veneto region presents as sharply defined orange rhombohedral crystals nestled within amygdaloidal cavities of red-brown igneous rock. The crystals are notably transparent, with clean geometric outlines that contrast warmly against the russet matrix. Among zeolite minerals, well-formed chabazite is among the most prized by collectors; specimens from this locality combine crystallographic integrity with genuine rarity of origin.
