Description

Fine matrix specimen of chabazite from Slovakia, featuring several sharp and well-formed crystals nestled in a central vug within the host rock. The crystals are bright and lustrous, showing excellent definition and typical rhombohedral habit. Slovak chabazite is relatively uncommon on the market, especially in such matrix pieces. It likely originates from basaltic or andesitic volcanic rocks in the region, where zeolites such as chabazite form through low-temperature hydrothermal processes. A rare and desirable specimen for any zeolite collector.
